# Danzig and the Vistula region

1540 · Anabaptist history · Overview

Danzig and the surrounding region appear on the supplied chart as a home of Mennonite congregations with Dutch backgrounds. The separate Flemish and Frisian lines continued in this setting.

Letters preserved in the Mennonite Heritage Archives connect these congregations with the early Chortitza settlement. The linked church histories follow the migration while preserving the community names used on the chart.
