Set against the backdrop of the Kettle Moraine State Forest and 600 acres of picturesque woodlands, prairie, and wetlands, Old World Wisconsin is a one-of-a kind-place where the modern world fades away to reveal over a century of history. The site includes 60 authentically restored historic homes, farms, stores, and workshops.
Along your journey from the 1840s to the 1910s, costumed ambassadors will invite you to get hands-on with history. You’ll meet furry friends on the farms, enjoy old-fashioned soda water in the general store, see sparks fly in the blacksmith shop, see how beer is made, and so much more!
How you explore is up to you – our historic areas are located within convenient walking distance of each other, or you can choose to hop on our complimentary tram.
