Monroe<br />
Monroe is home to the Green<br />
County Courthouse, a splendid example<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Romanesque style <strong>of</strong> architecture<br />
and one <strong>of</strong> the most photographed<br />
structures in southern <strong>Wisconsin</strong>. Built<br />
in 1891, the courthouse is surrounded<br />
by a downtown shopping district<br />
reminiscent <strong>of</strong> an old world European<br />
town square and <strong>of</strong>fers apparel, gifts,<br />
art, antiques, chocolates, bakery,<br />
restaurants, and cheese for sale.<br />
The area is <strong>of</strong>ficially designated as a<br />
National Register Historic District.<br />
Visitors to Monroe are invited to<br />
discover the old world art <strong>of</strong> making<br />
cheese at the Historic Cheesemaking<br />
Center. Graced with two huge<br />
copper cheesemaking kettles on the<br />
front lawn, this shrine to local cheese<br />
and dairy industries is located in a<br />
beautifully restored depot. Another<br />
treasure is the<br />
Green County Historical Society<br />
Museum, located in an 1861 church.<br />
The Little Red Schoolhouse next door<br />
is also open for exploration. Guests<br />
