Let’s Start in Wisconsin
Let’s look at fun, free and exciting things to do in Wisconsin!
Wisconsin has so much more to offer than just beer, cheese and brats. Let’s start in my hometown of Watertown, WI. They are home to the first kindergarten located on the grounds of an octagon shaped house.
“The Octagon House was one of the largest homes built prior to the Civil War in Wisconsin. The solid brick, five-story mansion was built with early forms of central heating, running water, and ventilating systems. A magnificent four-story central cantilevered spiral staircase rises four stories from the first floor to the cupola or “tower room” where one can enjoy sweeping vistas of the city and surrounding countryside.”

One of my favorite places to go is Olbrich Botanical Gardens in Madison, WI. They intertwine art and landscaping to create this tranquil space for visitors. I could spend all day just sitting and relaxing in gardens. This place also makes for a great photoshoot destination. This place will not disappoint! Head on over to http://www.olbrich.org/ to check them out!
There are a bunch of free or little cost museums across Wisconsin! The Chazen Museum of Art, The Wisconsin Automotive Museum, and the National Mustard Museum just to name a few.
Additionally, there are plenty of public parks to visit and explore in every city! You just have to do a little research to figure out which park will be best for you.
Feel free to comment on fun, free places you love to go to!
I have been to many of these places! It amazing the amount of cool places to travel just within your own state!
I have never heard of that Botanical garden that is in Madison! It looks really pretty though and now I am interested in going to check it out!!
Wow! Even though I have lived in Wisconsin for a few years, I didn’t know about these places. I will definitely have to check out the botanical gardens once this quarantine is over!
The Octagon House seems like it would be super interesting to go and see once the quarantine ends! I drive through Watertown between my parents’ house and Whitewater when I go to see them.
I live in Illinois but I love camping in Wisconsin. Wisconsin parks are so fun to hike, the views are amazing.
