About Us

Wichita County is a community of 1800 residents, with an economy based on agriculture and agriculturally related businesses.

Leoti, the county seat, is located in the center of Wichita County at the junction of Highways 96 and 25.

Marienthal, located 8 miles east of Leoti, is the home of St. Mary's Catholic Church and Heartland Mills (an organic grain processing plant that ships their products internationally).

Selkirk, located 11 miles west of Leoti, is the home of a 1887 Hand-dug Railroad Well, with a depot and caboose on site.

Coronado (now a ghost town), located 4 miles east of Leoti, was the site of the infamous county seat war between Leoti and Coronado which was considered the "bloodiest" in the state.
