Panorama Offers a Rare Bird's-Eye View of New Glarus

A 2022 drone image of New Glarus offers a striking overhead view of the village, showing the community from a perspective most people rarely see. Captured by a DJI drone, the image reveals the shape of the village, its surrounding hills and the way homes, streets, businesses and landmarks fit together from above.

Unlike the familiar street-level views of downtown, festivals, storefronts and Swiss-style architecture, this image pulls back and shows New Glarus as a whole. From above, the village's compact layout, green spaces, neighborhoods and nearby farmland become part of one larger picture.

The photo also offers a fresh way to appreciate how New Glarus sits in the landscape. The village is not just a collection of buildings and streets, but a community tucked into the rolling hills of Green County, surrounded by the rural scenery that helps define its character.
