Volga German Haus


This is a replica of the size and type of  home early Volga German settlers built. When the first immigrants arrived to establish their villages, they quickly constructed small dug-out sod shelters.The sod shelters were used until a more permanent house of native limestone rock could be built. The interior contains two rooms: a small room containing the  mud stove and the cooking utensils, and a large room that served as the living, dining, and sleeping area.
