    Hello,

    I have 2 old postcards from St. Nazianz (Wisconsin) a village described with German legend of which I do not find any on Delcampe.
    According to information found on Wikepedia this small village has a total area of 0.8 square miles (2.2 km²)

    Someone would have it additional details to communicate me why they are in German, and in which category they must be placed.
    Pictures herunder, both were dispatched towards Switzerland in 1901

    Sorry for poor English writting, I leave in Belgium and my language is french.

    Greetings from Brussels

    St. Nazianz was organized in 1854 as a religious colony by a group of German immigrants, led by Fr. Ambrose Oschwald, a Roman Catholic priest. The first settlers in the Oschwald group numbered 113 and came to the United States from the Black Forest of Baden, Germany, seeking religious freedom.

    Hello,

    Thank you very much for explanation and links.
    I had a doubt about correct category between Gemany and USA because the postards are written in German.
