History

edit

In 1892, the community was founded by a group of immigrant Volga Germans; they named it after their previous hometown of Marienthal (Tonkoschurovka), Russia (today Sovetskoya, Russia), located in the district of Saratov, on the east side of the Volga River.

The post office was established March 18, 1902.[3] The USPS discontinued service to Marienthal in 2011; the post office was officially closed in 2017.[4]

Marienthal now consists of roughly 100 people, a Catholic church,[5] a flour mill,[6] a substance abuse treatment center, a trucking company, a bar and a grain elevator.
