Wisconsin Dells is a city located in south-central Wisconsin, United States, known for its unique natural scenery and distinctive sandstone formations along the Wisconsin River. The name "Dells" comes from the French word "dalles" meaning narrows or rapids, referring to the striking rock formations carved by glacial meltwater.
Originally a logging and railway town, Wisconsin Dells transformed into a tourist destination in the late 19th century when photographer H.H. Bennett began documenting the area's natural beauty. Today, the city combines its natural heritage with various cultural attractions, including museums that preserve the region's history and Native American heritage.
The area has a rich cultural connection to the Ho-Chunk Nation, who called this region home for generations before European settlement. While now famous for its waterparks and family entertainment, Wisconsin Dells maintains historical sites and museums that offer insights into its geological formation, pioneer history, and Indigenous cultures.
