Witness the history of the Amish, Mennonites and Hutterites on Behalt, one of four cycloramas in North America. The name means “to keep, hold, remember.”

A different kind of attraction, this 10-foot by 265-foot circular mural is painted oil-on-canvas that uses unique artistic techniques of line and color to illustrate multiple stories within a sweeping timeline. 

Since the beginning of the Reformation in the early 1500s, the people who later came to be known as Amish and Mennonites have been a puzzle to the rest of the world. Who were these people who upset the European religious community, both Catholic and Protestant, by teaching about adult baptism? Why, in the face of trials and persecution, did they choose non-violence as a response?
