Text of the plaque erected by the Stearns County Historical Society:

"The St. Nicholas Church was erected here in 1866. It was followed by a district school in 1867 and the Mathias Schmit residence in 1868. John P. Schmit erected a post office in 1878 and served as postmaster. The community contained Michael Gross' blacksmith shop between 1878-1888 and the Michael Ellenbecker-Peter Decker saloon from 1881-1889. The community was abandoned during the 1890's with the establishment of another St. Nicholas church South of here."
