With its natural, unspoiled beauty, strong Norwegian heritage, and spiritual values of both the Moravian and Lutheran Churches, the village of Ephraim has long been considered a jewel of the Door County peninsula. Featuring over 200 classic images, many from the archives of the Ephraim Historical Foundation, Ephraim presents the landscapes, people, and events that helped shape this idyllic community, transforming it from a sleepy rural village into a nationally recognized destination for lovers of art, history, and natural beauty. Included are the pristine vistas of the 3,776-acre Peninsula State Park, numerous fine galleries, and charming historic resorts and buildings--still in use today--that captivate the imagination while contributing to Ephraim's rich heritage. The lovely little village of Ephraim has received much public praise throughout the years, most recently being voted the number one small-town vacation getaway by Midwest Living magazine. Discover the reasons for these accolades, as well as the history behind them, through the images in Ephraim.
