Built in 1852, the
Hauge Log Church was
the first Norwegian Lutheran Church constructed in western Wisconsin.
Adjacent to the church is a small cemetery where members of the
first congregation are buried, including Arne Ruste who cut the first log used in building
the church. |
Open from sunrise
to sunset seven days a week year-round, nearly a thousand visitors annually from
around the world stop to enjoy the scenic solitude of the location
and retreat from the busy modern world for a moment of quiet reflection. |
