Historic Sites of Manitoba: Lichtenau Mennonite Cemetery (RM of DeSalaberry)The Lichtenau Mennonite Church was the first church built by Mennonites that immigrated to Manitoba in the 1920s, near Ste. Elisabeth in the Rural Municipality of DeSalaberry. Built in 1929, it operated until 1989. In 1994, the building was moved to the Mennonite Heritage Village Museum. An engraved stone in the church's former cemetery commemorates it.
