Dutzow is an unincorporated community in southeastern Warren County, Missouri, United States. It is located on Route 94 about three miles north of Washington. It is near the Missouri River and is the oldest German community in the state, founded in 1832. It is named for the German estate of its founder, Johann Wilhelm Bock, often referred to as the Baron Von Bock. Bock's Berlin Society was the first colony of emigrants to follow the plan laid out by German author Gottfried Duden, who lived in what would become Dutzow from 1824 until 1827. Another famous resident was Friedrich Münch, who led the Giessen Society in 1834.
