2010 Map of Protivin

About this map

Protivin stands as a focal point in this northeast Iowa landscape, centered around the Protivin Post Office and the Holy Trinity Cemetery. The surrounding countryside is defined by the winding paths of Bohemian Creek and Wonder Creek, which cut through a strictly organized grid of agricultural roads like Yankee Ave and Co Rd B16. The heritage of the area is evident in its naming, particularly at the Bohemian National Cemetery east of the main settlement. Further south, the community of Little Turkey sits near the banks of the Little Turkey River, accompanied by multiple burial grounds including the Saint Marys Catholic Cemetery of Little Turkey. This area illustrates a typical Midwestern township structure where small rural centers provided essential services and spiritual hubs for the surrounding farming families.
