In!854agroup of God fearing people of West Germane Swiss and Alsatian ancestry left New York
State and founded the seven villages of Amana in the fertile fields of Iowa. They established their
own woolen mills, wagon shops, furniture factory and other industries. Each member contributed
some particular skill handed down from father to son in true old-world tradition.
The excellence of the Amana products soon attracted the attention of the outside world and the
colonies enjoyed a national reputation for superb workmanship. In all America there is no other
community quite like the Amana colonies of Iowa. Here today are blended the new ways with the old
•.. 20th century efficiency and time honored, fine craftsmanship.
