Old World Wisconsin, the nation's largest outdoor living history museum, re-created a portion of the original Pleasant Ridge community to preserve a little-known chapter of African-American migration to Wisconsin. The exhibit includes the church, a cemetery chapel and an authentic replica of the Pleasant Ridge Cemetery, complete with reproduced gravestones that reflect the actual design and placement of those in the original cemetery.
