MUSEUM ONLINE AT WIS. DECORATIVE ARTS DATABASE!

The Historical Museum has twenty-nine artifacts connected with Mayville families listed and pictured on the Wisconsin Decorative Arts Database, including several quilts, a unique pocket watch with case, Peerless luggage, a hair wreath, handpainted teacup and saucer.  A wealth of historical background is provided for these items. 

Check out this website at:  www.wisconsinhistory.org/decorativearts 

Visit the museum to see these artifacts and much more at our museum complex, open on 2nd and 4th Sundays, May through October!

A Busy October!

During October, the Mayville Historical Society opened its doors to visitors from two car collectors clubs, one local and the other from Fond du Lac.  The 4-building complex of Hollenstein Carriage Factory, Hollenstein family home, Fire House and Brunke Cigar Factory was open on Sunday during Audubon Days, as well as the second and fourth Sundays of October, our final openings of 2009.

School field trips for 3rd and 4th graders, a new program this fall, have been scheduled.  St. Mary’s classes have toured the museum, and St. John’s 4th grade is scheduled for a visit.

The museum gardens are being cleaned up before snow flies, and planning continues for landscaping additions, as well as new indoor exhibits next spring.

We welcome visitors during our regularly scheduled open hours, and by special appointment at any time.
