Deutschheim Historic Site
NOTE: This text is from here.
Visit a significant part of German-American history – and early Missouri settlement – at Deutschheim State Historic Site. Stroll through the restored 1840s and 1850s buildings and explore how German-Americans settled the Hermann area and developed the basis for a Missouri wine industry. Grapevines planted more than 100 years ago can still be seen on the property as can a number of historic artifacts. Visitors also can tour the Strehly house, which was used for a printing business that produced the first German newspaper west of the Mississippi in 1843.
