    Not far from Madison, Wisconsin you’ll find a town brimming with Scandinavian pride. If you're looking for things to do in Wisconsin, or Wisconsin hidden gems, Mount Horeb is an unusual place to visit. You can walk along the "Trollway" in search of their 30+ trolls that stand in front of shops, pubs, and more. You can even eat some Scandinavian food while you're there. I'd say there's enough there for an hour or two visit--there's a museum in town (that we were not allowed to film inside of) as well as nice-looking cafes. The trolls are a marketing effort by the town to bring in more visitors. They are pretty charming!

    I had no idea. Many years ago my wife and I took a roadtrip through WI and at the tourist bureau I jokingly asked for the "cheese map". Without missing a beat the guy produced one. We spent the next few days on a cheese tour.

      Haha! I believe it. I've never eaten more cheese in my life than in WI

    So Door County ISN'T the only Norway-centered locale in Wisconsin? NICE. At least these are nice trolls. Not the mean ones on social.

      @TheCuriousWorld  2 года назад +1

      I hadn't even heard of Door County before, but it makes sense that there would be more than one town promoting their Scandinavian heritage!

    Thank for this. I've been through Wisconsin a thousand times and never heard of Mount Horeb. Hope you got a chance to check out the House on the Rock. It's uhh... insane.

    • @TheCuriousWorld
      @TheCuriousWorld  2 года назад +3

      Oh my gosh. House on the Rock changed my life. I didn't film a video about it when I went, because I had no idea how insane it was going to be. Truly the coolest place I've ever been and I cannot WAIT to go back!! I rave about it to everyone, ha.

      I hope you people one day leave Wisconsin and realize that a weird house on a small rock is not something life changing.

    Are the contents of the museum that was in the stave church available anywhere? Or is it all gone? :(

    • @TheCuriousWorld
      @TheCuriousWorld  2 года назад +1

      Good question! It looks like they're still around, acquired by the Mount Horeb Historical Society

      @@TheCuriousWorld You can even take a virtual tour of the Stave Church at the Driftless Historium, which is the museum run by the Historical Society. It's great!

    • @TheCuriousWorld

      Yes!! When I was there that exhibit was closed due to Covid, but hopefully next time!
