The Communal Kitchen, part of the Amana Heritage Society in Middle Amana, offers visitors a glimpse into the communal living practices of the Amana Colonies. This small but informative site showcases the kitchen where meals were prepared for the community members during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Visitors appreciate the well-preserved artifacts and the opportunity to learn about the unique lifestyle of the Amana people. The kitchen's layout and original equipment help illustrate the efficiency and organization required to feed large groups. While some find the experience educational and interesting, others note that the exhibit is relatively small and can be viewed quickly. The staff members are generally knowledgeable and friendly, adding value to the visit with their insights. However, some visitors mention that more interactive elements or guided tours could enhance the experience. Overall, the Communal Kitchen provides a focused look at an important aspect of Amana Colony life, but may not offer enough content for a lengthy visit on its own.
