History, Craft, and Comfort Food
The Amana Colonies, 20 miles west, invite you to explore Iowa’s only operating woolen mill, browse heirloom-quality goods at the Amana Furniture & Clock Shop, and savor a German family-style lunch at the iconic Ox Yoke Inn. Don’t leave without stocking up on locally made treats at the Meat Shop and General Store.
Fifteen miles southwest, Kalona blends old-world charm with new energy.
