Episode 21
On this episode, we focus on a small village with a whole lot of history that is still on display to this day. Built by immigrants from Switzerland and Germany in 1869. This village and its citizens pressed through many uphill battles to exist. Thanks to those strong people, the traditions and village are proudly on display to this day by their ancestors. From celebrations to food and from hard work to the buildings still standing Helvetia stands as a historic tribute to those who built it.
