Each dome has a distinct climate and exhibits plants in a naturalistic setting. Visit and experience a desert oasis, a tropical jungle and special floral gardens all in one afternoon. 524 S. Layton Boulevard, Milwaukee 414-649-9800 Art Museum The awesome design of the Brise Soleil addition to the museum designed by Santiago Calatrava is perhaps the most recognizable component of the Milwaukee Art Museum and worth the trip on its own. If you venture inside you will find an impressive collection that spans the centuries from ancient Greece and Egypt to the pop art of Warhol and Lichtenstein and beyond. 700 N. Art Museum Drive, Milwaukee 414-224-3200 Joan of Arc Chapel This chapel dates back to the 15th century and is known as the location where Joan of Arc prayed before she was burnt at the stake. As legend would have it, the stone she kissed in this chapel is perceptibly colder than all the others. This chapel was dismantled stone by stone then reconstructed first in Long Island in 1926/27 then in Milwaukee in 1964 when it was presented to Marquette University. 1515 W.

Built as a critical parody of Frank Lloyd architecture, the House On The Rock is stuffed to the gills with miniatures and oddities to delight and mystify. 5754 Hwy 23, Spring Green 608-935-3639 Pabst Mansion Built in 1892, this Flemish Renaissance Revival Mansion represents the epitome of America’s Gilded Age Splendor in Milwaukee features stunning interiors, elegant original furnishings, elaborate wall coverings, the finest wood craftsmanship, intricate ironwork, brilliant stained glass, and rare art, the Mansion helped make the 1890’s the “Pabst Decade” in Milwaukee. © 2006 H-D.
