2013 Map of New Bremen

About this map

New Bremen and Minster anchor this 2013 survey of the western Ohio countryside, a landscape defined by its grid-aligned farms and a deep-seated Catholic heritage. The map documents numerous religious landmarks that speak to the region's genealogy, including Saint Johns Catholic Cem and Saint Augustines Cem. Small rural clusters like Maria Stein, Chickasaw, and Egypt are connected by a network of state routes and township roads, while the New Bremen Speedway stands as a distinct recreational landmark north of the main village. This modern topographic study by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the enduring agricultural character of the region, tracing the paths of Chickasaw Creek and Kopp Creek as they meander through the precisely sectioned fields of Auglaize and Mercer counties.
