Robert Owen and his followers purchased the town of Harmonie in Posey County, Indiana, in 1825. They hoped to establish a model communal village, which they named New Harmony, where they tried to practice Owen's theories about cooperative living. The project failed and the town was dissolved in 1928. Historic New Harmony now contains a group of restored buildings and other landmarks.
