Summary

General Store and post office, Lobethal in 1865. The proprietor's name above the front door appears to be U D Mengerlen. The brick building appears to be new and well built. Many people, horses and wagons are outside the general store. Lobethal was first organised in England by George Fife Angas as a settlement for persecuted Germans fleeing from the Prussian king. George Fife Angas was promoting South Australia as a colony and he made a contribution to aid the German settlement. Consequently eighteen families settled in Lobethal.
