Kewaunee County

Kewaunee County was occupied by Native American groups, such as the Menominee, Potawatomi, and Winnebago, before the first European settlers in 1852.

Agriculture and timber harvesting accounted for the majority of the county's economic activity in the 19th century. As a result, the county's first sawmill was established in 1852.

Kewaunee County's economy underwent dramatic changes in the 20th century as manufacturing and tourism gained prominence and agriculture and forest harvesting fell. The county now has a number of manufacturing businesses.

The fishing business has been crucial, with Lake Michigan's commercial fishing being a significant source of income for many locals.

The Kewaunee River, the shoreline of Lake Michigan, and historical attractions like the Kewaunee County Historical Society Museum and the Algoma lighthouse all contribute to the county's tourism industry, which is now a significant component of its economy.

Door County

In the northern region of Wisconsin, Door County was founded in 1851. Named for the strait that runs between Washington Island and the Door Peninsula. The area was home to various Native American tribes, including the Menominee, Potawatomi, and Ojibwe.

In the mid-1800s settlers, mostly from New England and the East Coast, arrived to the area. The rich soil, numerous forests, and proximity to Lake Michigan is what drew them in. In the late 1800s, the lumber business flourished in Door County, with numerous sawmills spawning.

Agriculture and fishing also developed into significant sectors for Door County, where cherry orchards and fish markets are now prevalent. Door County began to promote tourism in the early 1900s, with people drawn to the area's natural beauty and many recreational activities.

Door County is a popular vacation spot well-known for its picturesque landscape, charming communities, and recreational activities. In addition to various historical monuments and museums, the county is home to several state parks, including Peninsula State Park and Newport State Park. Cherry orchards and fish markets are still thriving in the region, and the county is renowned for its thriving arts and cultural sector.
