Pewaukee, meaning “Lake of Shells”, was first
inhabited by the Sauk, Menomonie, Winnebago
and Potawatomi American Indian tribes. Settlers
didn’t arrive until 1836, establishing homes
along Pewaukee Lake. Among some of the earliest
settlers was Deacon Asa Clark, who later became a
prominent presence in Pewaukee. Upon arriving
to Milwaukee, Clark joined a partnership to
open the first sawmill on Pewaukee Lake, later
dissolving the partnership and opening a mill in
1838. The lime and stone industry followed in 1844
and flourished for many years. With the successes
of early industry general stores, blacksmith
and wagon shops were established to serve the
growing number of workers in the area.
Soon after the extension of the railroad from
Milwaukee in the 1880s, Pewaukee began to
attract a lot of summer visitors. Two prominent
hotels serving the out of town guests were
the Oakton Springs and Health’s. With clever
advertising and word of mouth, the Pewaukee area
quickly became known as a fisherman’s paradise
and for its unrivaled beauty.
Today Pewaukee is still known as a fishing
enthusiast’s dream come true, providing the best
muskie fishing in Southeast Wisconsin. Pewaukee
Lake also promises year-round fun — swimming,
boating or fishing in spring and summer, strolling
the shoreline to take in the many colors of
autumn; and ice skating at Lakefront Park during
the winter. Visiting Pewaukee means experiencing
the charm and beauty of what our locals refer to
as Lake Country living, while catching glimpses of
times past.

The city of Waukesha, originally known as Prairie
Village, was lush with forestry and prairies
along the banks of the Fox River. It was also the
first home to resident Indian tribes like Sauk,
Menomonie, Winnebago and Potawatomi. These
tribes’ prehistoric ancestors left behind a number
of earthen mounds; early pioneers reported 11
groupings of 55 mounds.
Prior to the 1830s, the area was unvisited by
settlers due to its inland location, and the fact
that the Fox River was not a water highway.
European settlers came only to the area to set up
fur trading posts between their new encampments
and established cities like Milwaukee. The first
permanent white settlers — Morris D. Cutler and
Alonso Cutler — arrived in 1834 seeking claims
for homesteads. In 1836, Indian tribes formally
lost title to the land and were removed by the
Federal Army.
Waukesha, translated to mean “By The Little
Fox,” gained worldwide notoriety as a resort area
during the last quarter of the nineteenth century,
all traced to a man named Colonel Richard
Dunbar. Suffering from painful diabetes, Dunbar
accidentally discovered the alleged “healing
effects” of local spring water.
Waukesha has grown and prospered and now
represents a thriving city (the seventh largest
in Wisconsin) with more than 70,000 residents,
defined by diversified industry, quality education,
strong health care facilities, attractive and
friendly residential areas and a qualified and
experienced hospitality industry. While visiting
Waukesha, you can enjoy the bygone era in the
many parks, museums and architecture of the
downtown district.

Did you know that Waukesha was named a Gibson GuitarTown? For two years (2012-2013) Gibson Guitar Company selected Waukesha for its eighth and ninth worldwide GuitarTown designation to honor the birth and final resting place of guitar legend Les Paul. Other designated cities include Los Angeles, Cleveland, Miami, Orlando, Austin, Nashville and London.
Throughout downtown Waukesha, you will find a series of murals focused on Les Paul and the history of Waukesha at various locations. The GuitarTown murals were painted by the nationally acclaimed Walldogs, a group of sign and mural artists who have done many projects around the United States. Some murals have also been painted by local artists.
During the months of May – October you will also find large 10-foot tall fiberglass sculpture Gibson Les Paul guitars painted by local artists in various locations throughout Waukesha.
Both murals and 10-foot tall guitars are great spots for photos. Be sure to tag your photos #visitwaukesha for a chance to have your photo featured.
