South Wood County Historical

i.e., A local favorite, or highly recommended becauseThis is a fun local museum to visit whether you live in the Wisconsin Rapids area or are touring from elsewhere. My last visit with my 11 year-old lasted nearly two hours, during which time we learned a lot about our local community's history, starting with the Native American Indian arrowheads from 9,000 BC and going right through the European settlement, the logging industry, the American Civil War, paper-making, Cranberry farming and animation. Of special interest when we visited was the Battle Of Gettysburg special exhibition, with hundreds of artifacts from the American Civil War on display. Recommended for the whole family!
