St. Jacobs 
City nuances in the era of the 19th century millennium 

Canada, a developed country which is identical to the modernity and high technology, it still keeps a community alive as the 19th century. Yes, in St. Jacobs, time seemed to reverse two centuries back. Horse-drawn carriage, oil lamps and the women dressed a la Little House on the Prairie into everyday scenery.  



The small town of St.. Jacobs is located near Waterloo, south western province of Ontario, Canada. The city was established in 1852 originally known by the name "Jakob Stettel" which means village of Jacob. Additional St just to make it pleasant to hear and describe the diversity of the city. Also as a form of homage to the founder of Jacob C. Snider (1791-1865) and his son, Jacob C. Snider Jr. (1822-1857) who died from an accident at the age of 35 years. Two centuries have passed, but until now still buggy up and down the main street of the village, which contained more than 100 retail stores and local craftsmen. Background scenery of rice fields and beautiful gardens. 



Horse-drawn carriage symbol of the city St. 
Jacobs 

Population St. Jacobs is a descendant of Mennonite immigrants adherents, a flow of movement churches XVI century reforms spearheaded by a Catholic priest named Menno Simons (1496-1561). They migrate from the U.S. state of Pennsylvania to the Waterloo-Province of Ontario, Canada. Despite hundreds of years have passed, they still retain the old habits of the ancient German-style farming. Also rejected everything modern. In homes, rarely is seen lights, TV, or telephone. In farming and raising cattle they also do not use chemical fertilizers and other synthetic materials.


Nonetheless, this city is a producer of butter and cheese quality. The first creamery in Ontario (Canada's third) was built in this city in 1874. Over 98 years of operation, St. Jacobs Creamery-name manufacturers have already obtained many awards for its product quality is good.

In this city, we will see the train and down the road. Yes, train a horse is a symbol of St.Jacobs. Once entering the town pangunjung will be greeted with a mural paints horse-drawn carriage. On the streets are also frequently seen coachman and horses wearing the black hat, black long coat, a la 19th century. The women wore a blue scarf and long skirt woven home. Several seen peddling fruit on the roadside.

On both sides of main roads strewn a variety of ancient design shops have a small kitchen window with a unique blend of color. Indeed, a 19th century view that only we can see in the movies.
