Three Groups, One Story

The Journey That Built A South Dakota Community

About The Movie

Three Groups, One Story: Freeman Museum's Film Captures Story of Local Immigrants


Featured in The Yankton Daily Press & Dakotan


Germans from Russia were often treated like strangers in their own land.  After moving from country to country, many of them settled in the Great Plains states, including the area around Freeman in southeast South Dakota. The Germans from Russia included  three Anabaptist groups — Hutterites, Swiss Amish and Low German  Mennonites — who arose from the Protestant Reformation of the 1500s.
