Welcome to Middleton, WIVoted "Best Place to Live, 2009", Middleton is but 10 minutes west of downtown Madison. Enjoy being conveniently located near some of your favorite Wisconsin attractions, including UW's Camp Randall Stadium, Wisconsin’s State Capitol, the House on the Rock, and Circus World Museum, and so much more. Middleton hosts a rich history and a plethora of historical sites for area citizens and out-of-area visitors. Many may wish to stop in at the Stamm House. Built in 1847, the Stamm House was Middleton's first official inn. For a time, it even housed the Post Office for Pheasant Branch and also had its own wine cellar. Some of its rich history includes the belief that it was a stop of the Underground Railroad, aiding escaping slaves. Today, it is a very popular restaurant.
In the months of May through October, come and enjoy the Middleton Farmers Market. Sample the delectable freshly and locally grown vegetables. Enjoy the oak savannas, prairies, and wetlands that are home to an abundance of native vegetation and wildlife species, including the endangered Blandings turtle.
