Beer, Germans & Methodism
When Ludwig Jacoby rode into St. Louis in 1841, he expected to build a church—he didn't expect a front-row seat to a century of chaos. Join historian Elizabeth Kurrus for an exploration of the rocky path German immigrants walked as they navigated race riots, cultural clashes, and political upheaval.
From the violence of the 1800s to the "dry" tensions of the Temperance Movement and Prohibition, discover how a community of German-St. Louisans balanced their faith, their heritage, and their beer in a city on the edge. All are invited to this free event.
