Heritage and<br />
Culture<br />
Many communities pay homage to<br />
heritage with their efforts in historic<br />
preservation, as evidenced by the bounty<br />
<strong>of</strong> museums, historic districts, and<br />
buildings awaiting your exploration.<br />
Albany, Brodhead, Browntown, Monroe,<br />
Monticello, and New Glarus all have<br />
wonderful museums. Brodhead and<br />
Monroe also have designated historic<br />
districts.<br />
Besides the ethnic attractions,<br />
historic architecture, museums and<br />
festivals, there are many other cultural<br />
opportunities that can be sampled in<br />
Green County. For example, you can<br />
attend a musical performance, visit an<br />
art exhibit, learn about the old-world art<br />
<strong>of</strong> cheesemaking, or explore a restored<br />
railroad depot.<br />
Albany<br />
Albany features small town friendliness and<br />
charm with two bed and breakfasts, a scenic dam,<br />
and easy access to both the Sugar River and the<br />
Sugar River State Trail. Visit the Albany Historical<br />
Society Museum for a glimpse <strong>of</strong> early Albany, with<br />
displays on the pearl button industry, toys, cameras,<br />
hats, and more.<br />
Belleville<br />
Plan to attend BamFest (Belleville American<br />
Music Fest) in July or UFO Days on Halloween<br />
weekend - complete with spooky activities<br />
throughout the village.<br />
Brodhead<br />
Rich in railroad history, Brodhead welcomes visitors to the<br />
city with their authentically restored Historical Depot Museum,<br />
complete with an engine and caboose open for exploration.<br />
Brodhead also serves as the southern entrance to the Sugar<br />
River State Trail, with a shelter house, restrooms, and parking<br />
area. In addition, there are a variety <strong>of</strong> restaurants to enjoy, along<br />
with campgrounds nearby, a go-cart track, an airport, a bed and<br />
breakfast, and several stores featuring Amish goods and furniture.<br />
Brooklyn<br />
Music lovers enjoy the bluegrass festival in summer, and<br />
