Milwaukee Wisconsin Milwaukee Wisconsin ranks up there as a favorite town for my husband and me. With neighborhoods of German, Czech, Polish, Italian and more, it is a city with European origins that exhibits an array of cultures and traditions. In addition, the mills, canneries and breweries tell the story of Milwaukee's rich manufacturing history. Combine these factors with modern developments and a proximity to Lake Michigan and you will find a city with a unique look and feel, not to mention a diverse blend of educational and entertainment-oriented attractions to visit.The rich European heritage is evident at festivals like Irish Fest Milwaukee, while people travel for miles around to attend the world's largest musical event called Summerfest Milwaukee, which is held each year.
