Historic Sites of Manitoba: Bergthaler Mennonite Church Bell (Plum Coulee, Municipality of Rhineland)

The Plum Coulee Bergthaler locale first met at the town’s Baptist Church in 1897, summoned to service by this bell. It was removed when a new church building was erected in 1958 but was installed in this tower in 1997, for its centenary.
