Description

View of Guttenberg, Clayton County, I.A., 1869 / drawn & published by A. Ruger.

This bird’s-eye view print of Guttenberg, Iowa was drawn by Albert Ruger and published by Merchants Lithographing Co. in 1869. Guttenberg was established along the Mississippi River in the mid-1800's and settled by mostly German immigrants. The father of movable-type, Johannes Gutenberg, was honored with the town’s name.

The bluffs surrounding Guttenberg supplied limestone building material, which much of the early town was built with. Guttenberg maintained as a busy river-port community, transporting produce and grain from the region, as well as the valued limestone.
