2010 Map of Zwingle

About this map

The small community of Zwingle sits at the intersection of local routes in this eastern Iowa landscape, serving as a central hub with its own Zwingle Post Office and Zwingle Cemetery. The area is notably dense with commemorative sites, including Saint Theresa Cemetery, Assumption Cemetery, and the Presley Presbyterian Cemetery, which hint at the diverse denominational history of the early settlers. To the north, the small settlement of Bennettsville and the landing strip at Kleis Airport suggest the varied rural land use of the period. The drainage of Otter Creek and Buncombe Creek shapes the topography, with a grid of local roads like Bennettsville Rd and Old Davenport Rd connecting these scattered rural outposts. The map reveals a transition between established agricultural life and modern infrastructure, including the alignment of Old Hwy 61 as it cuts through the heart of the region.
