About this map

The Missouri River dominates the center of this landscape, carving a wide valley between the high ground of Montgomery, Warren, and Gasconade Counties. On the southern bank, Hermann is the primary settlement, its street grid reaching toward the riverfront while the Hermann Municipal Airport sits on the northern flats. The region is densely marked by family and parish history, evidenced by a high concentration of burial grounds including Old Saint George Cem, Saint George Cem, and Hermann Cem.

North of the river, McKittrick and the small community of Case serve as landmarks in the river bottomlands near Loutre Slough and Rush Island. The surrounding hillsides are characterized by deep drainage systems like Frene Cr and Little Berger Cr, where smaller family sites such as Poeschel Cem and Langendoerfer Cem are found. The terrain is marked by significant features like Kallmeyers Bluff and several private water bodies including A C Schneider Lake and Arthur Jasper Lake, reflecting a modern landscape still deeply rooted in its 19th-century settlement patterns.
