German School, built 1889, for the Zion Evangelical German Church; faces south. Was use at least as late as 1959. Current owner, who did restoration, says his grandfather and grandfather’s two sisters attended there in 1903. After use as a school it was built into a kitchen and had other building attached for use as community center. Later went to a Saddle Club. From US218, turn west on County J56 to the small village of Primrose. Turn south on 143rd Ave, and go a couple blocks south to the end at 197th Street; the school is on the NW corner. Externally restored except west side has garage door installed.
The following photos are provided via Val Root. The first one is ca.1950, while the second one shows the state it was in prior to restoration.
