2018 Map of Hamburg

About this map

Hamburg sits at the eastern edge of this agricultural landscape in Marathon County, where the Big Rib River winds through the southern terrain. This portion of central Wisconsin is defined by its rural grid, centered around the unincorporated settlement of Hamburg and its neighboring Hamburg Cemetery. The terrain is drained by several waterways, including McGinnis Creek, Grass Creek, and Black Creek, which weave through the townships of Marathon and Lincoln. Local heritage is deeply rooted in these small communities and their rural burial grounds, such as Saint Pauls Cemetery and Lueck Cemetery, which are preserved alongside the modern road network of the 21st century. The map illustrates a landscape of established family farms and woodlots that have maintained their structure since the late nineteenth-century settlement period.
