Downtown Sheboygan - Sheboygan, WI Area Guide

A waterfront gem in the Midwest

River Lake Michigan History Restaurants Shops

The Spirit on the Lake -- Sheboygan -- is a fun-loving city with a fantastic downtown. Extending from the Sheboygan River east along Pennsylvania Avenue, Downtown Sheboygan offers an amazing waterfront, picture-perfect architecture, vibrant green space, and plenty of shops and restaurants lining wide sidewalks.

Sheboygan is famous for bratwurst and is home to the Bratwurst Days festival. And, of course, being located along the Sheboygan River with Lake Michigan on the east side of Downtown Sheboygan, fishing, lake surfing, and boating are popular pastimes. When you aren't enjoying the water, catch a show at the Weill Center for the Performing Arts, explore the John Michael Kohler Arts Center, or take the kids to the Above & Beyond Children's Museum.
