The picturesque cluster of stone buildings that make up Pendarvis Historic Site today were originally constructed by Cornish immigrants who settled in the area during the early 1800s. They were preserved through the efforts of life and business partners Bob Neal and Edgar Hellum.

Pendarvis will give visitors a new understanding of what it means to be a Wisconsin badger, and how one amazing couple helped save this piece of Wisconsin’s history.
