Waukesha is a lively suburb just 20 miles west of Milwaukee, home to a thriving community and boasting numerous attractions and cultural points of interest. Historical destinations like the Clark House Museum, Ten Chimneys and Old World Wisconsin provide an interesting look into the city's past. On the shores of Pewaukee Lake, Waukesha Beach has grown from a small shoreline favored by locals to a swimming hotspot that attracts tourists from around the Milwaukee metro area.
Shortly after the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, the area around Waukesha was settled by a mix of pioneers, land investors and fur trappers. Around the turn of the century, Waukesha began to welcome relatively upscale residents and visitors, thanks to the many natural springs in the area. It was advertised as a "spa town," where tourists could come to relax and take advantage of the purported healing properties of the spring water. The small town was flooded with visitors, including Richard W. Sears (founder of Sears and Roebuck), who spent his retirement and final years in Waukesha.
