Old World Wisconsin
Eagle, WI
"The immigrants and pioneers who settled Wisconsin came from vastly different
cultures. Yet they all shared a common purpose — the determined pursuit of the
American Dream. Old World Wisconsin tells their stories by re-creating a world
in which farmers, tradesmen and shopkeepers lead their lives the same way these
settlers did. Bring the whole family to see, hear and smell the same things that
filled the senses of those hardy souls who chose to build new lives in a faraway
place called Wisconsin."
National
Dairy Shrine Visitors' Center
Ft. Atkinson, WI
"Discover the rich heritage of the dairy industry at the National Dairy Shrine
Visitors' Center. Where else can you learn the history of ice cream, see a dog-powered
butter churn and check out photos of champion cows dating back nine decades?
You'll leave with a better understanding of why, for nearly 8,000 years, people
have depended on the dairy cow for life-sustaining milk and a better quality
of life."
