Hutterite traditions

Hutterite history centres on gathered Christian communities and community of goods. Its migration story links Moravia, eastern Europe, and North America.

The exhibit follows Hutterite migrations across central and eastern Europe and into North America in 1874. Community of goods remains central to colony life. The later Bruderhof has a documented connection with Hutterite communal practice, but its own beginning was in Germany in 1920.
