Things to do in Appleton

Appleton is the largest of the Fox Cities, a string of communities along the Fox River between Lake Winnebago and Green Bay that grew rich on paper mills powered by the river’s falls. Paper and packaging remain important, joined today by financial services, printing, manufacturing, healthcare and specialty trucks and equipment built in nearby Oshkosh. Lawrence University, a respected liberal arts college and conservatory, sits on the river bluff downtown, and Harry Houdini spent part of his childhood here.
