The settlement of Amana was founded in 1850 by "Inspirationists" of German origin - the first of seven villages in eastern Iowa in which they led a God-fearing life and tilled their communally owned land. A local museum traces the history of the sect, which adopted 20th C ways of life only in 1932.
