Description
English: In 1856, a depot was built by the Milwaukee-Mississippi Railroad Company to serve the community then called Middleton Station. It was replaced by another depot which burned. The present building was erected in 1895 and had a passenger waiting room, a freight room, and a station agent's office. It continued in use by the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific Railroad (also known as "the Milwaukee Road") serving passengers trains until 1960 and was used as a freight depot until 1975, when the Wisconsin Public Service Commission permitted its closing. The depot was purchased by the City of Middleton in 1976 and remodeled, initially to serve as a Senior Citizens' headquarters, more recently as a Visitor Center. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999, both because of its architecture and also because of its association with the development of railroads of Middleton and Wisconsin.
