2017 Map of Danzig

About this map

The small settlement of Danzig anchors this survey of south-central North Dakota, where the landscape is defined by the prairie pothole region's distinctive hydrology. This map provides a clear look at the scattered wetlands and glacial depressions that dot the terrain, most notably Green Lake, Clear Lake, and Mud Lake. These water bodies are interspersed among a precise grid of section lines and gravel roads, including 43rd Ave SE and 84th St SE, which have dictated the area's agricultural development for over a century. For those researching local history or genealogy, the map identifies specific sacred sites such as the Danzig Cem just south of the main townsite and the Salem Cem further east. These small cemeteries, along with the remaining structures of Danzig, represent the enduring legacy of the German-Russian immigrant communities that originally settled McIntosh County.
