Journey Back to the Heart of Iowa: Amana Colonies 1932-1945

The Amana Colonies were a unique and fascinating community in the heart of Iowa. Founded in the 19th century by a group of German immigrants, the Amana people lived a communal lifestyle based on their religious beliefs. They shared all their possessions, worked together, and made all decisions by consensus.

The 1930s and 40s were a pivotal era for the Amana Colonies. The Great Depression had a devastating impact on the community, but the Amana people persevered through hard work and cooperation. They also began to open up to the outside world, welcoming visitors and sharing their culture with others.
