New Video

It is a little known fact that Wisconsin was the location for a number of Prisoner of War camps during World War II. Surprisingly, there were 38 of them totaling about 20,000 POWs. Bob Block, an Oregon resident and retired employee of the Wisconsin Crime Lab in Madison, told stores of these camps for the Fitchburg Historical Society’s fall program on Sunday, November 9, 2025.

Display Case

The Society’s new display case features a short one page description with contact information and a photo for several of the religious organizations in and adjacent to Fitchburg. This display shows the great diversity that is available to Fitchburg residents. The display will be changed periodically to feature other religious organizations in Fitchburg. For a complete list and descriptions of religious organizations in Fitchburg as well as a map showing their location, view the Religious Organizations FHS webpage under Religion.
