Over on Wisconsin’s west coast sits Stockholm, a small town with tons to draw you in. With Swedish heritage that can be traced back to the original settlers, a gorgeous location on the widest part of the Mississippi River and all the charm of small-town Wisconsin, Stockholm is the kind of place you want to visit again and again.
With a population of just 66 people, Stockholm is certainly a tiny little town, but it's packed with cool things to do and see.
Located on Wisconsin's west coast about 90 minutes downriver from Minneapolis, Stockholm was settled in 1851 by a Swedish explorer who climbed what we know as Maiden Rock Bluff and felt it was a good spot for a settlement.
A group of 200 Swedes were lured to emigrate to this area by Erik Petterson, the original settler. Only 30 of them actually survived the trip and ended up in Stockholm. Today many of the town's residents can trace their roots back to those settlers.
