Wisconsin State Historic Markers
Would you like to visit the birthplace of the ice cream sundae, where the creator of the Betty Boop character got his start, or perhaps follow in the footsteps of Abraham Lincoln during his army days in the Black Hawk War? History is all around us, if you only know where to look. To discover Wisconsin’s rich history and culture, just find an official Wisconsin State Historical Marker. These historical markers tell the stories of historical, archaeological, geological, or legendary events at the local, state, and national level. Wisconsin has over 550 historical markers, each with its own unique tale to tell. From the Apostle Islands at the very top of the state to the first point of survey in the south, these historical markers are your keys to unlocking the history of Wisconsin.
