Westphalia MO is the friendship city of Oelde Germany. It's the oldest German Catholic community west of the Mississippi and the Westphalia Historical Society formed to keep that German heritage alive. Visit the Museum Sundays 1-3 p.m. from May-Oct. To learn more check out the website at www.whs65085.org. Permission to place this cache was granted by the Parish Pastor.
The St. Joseph Cemetery is one of two cemeteries in Westphalia. This one is still in use. Visitors to the cache may choose to park on the street or pull into the front area of the cemetery. There is a circle drive right inside the gate where you can park and grab, then be on your way again. You are also welcome to explore a little.
Please be reverent and leave the area if there is a burial in progress.
