Experience Historic Hospitality from the time of Horse-Drawn Carriages

Wade House showcases the horse-powered world that existed before planes, cars, and railroads. Explore the golden era of the carriage through our stagecoach inn and historic structures, a state-of-the-art modern museum, and Wisconsin’s largest collections of carriages and wagons.

A woman wearing a white jacket and black pants, and a man wearing a face mask and dark coat lift a white cover off a red and yellow stagecoach secured on a wooden pallet outdoors.

Step Into History – For a Limited Time Only

Step back in time with the 1875 Hotel Style Concord Stagecoach #433 at the Wesley W. Jung Carriage Museum. One of only about 160 known to exist, this beautifully preserved coach is a striking addition to Wisconsin’s largest collection of historic carriages and wagons. Don’t miss your chance to view this remarkable artifact!


MARK YOUR CALENDAR

Take a Special Scenic Ride
