Wisconsin Landmarks & Heritage

Wisconsin's heritage spans from ancient Roche-a-Cri petroglyphs to the industrial relics of the Northwoods. This collection features maritime beacons like the Wind Point and Rawley Point lighthouses, alongside Milwaukee’s Victorian Gothic North Point Water Tower and the Pabst Theater. Industrial history is represented by the massive Cornell Pulpwood Stacker, the Plummer Mine Headframe, and the Round Lake Logging Dam. Engineering landmarks include the Davidson Windmill and several historic crossings over the St. Croix River.
