Old Economy Village was the home of a communal Christian society formed by a group of German Lutheran separatists in 1824. In an age rife with utopias attempting to establish themselves in the newly-founded United States, the Harmonists were among the most successful, lasting for about eighty industrious years before dwindling membership and financial stressors caused the village's closure. Today, the Old Economy Village site offers insights into both the daily lives of community members and the larger ideals that drew them there.
