Sheboygan, the largest city in Sheboygan
county at just over 50,000 residents, lies on the shores of Lake Michigan
about 60 miles north of Milwaukee, in east-central Wisconsin. Formerly a
busy trading and fishing port, Sheboygan grew through shipping and industry,
and was a major center of German immigration to the area. While shipping on
the Great Lakes has seen a major decline and the commercial fisheries
disappeared entirely, Sheboygan remains a prospering industrial town, and
continues its immigrant heritage to this day, with vibrant Hispanic and
Hmong communities adding their influences to the cultural landscape. The
"spirit on the lake" (a translation of the Native American name) is also
becoming a tourist destination thanks to several farsighted development
initiatives, particularly along the scenic riverfront and lakefront.Get
