2015 Map of Kiel

About this map

The city of Kiel and the nearby town of New Holstein anchor this 2015 survey of east-central Wisconsin, where the borders of Calumet, Manitowoc, and Sheboygan counties meet. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Sheboygan River, which flows through the heart of Kiel near the 150 Reservoir. The region retains a strong connection to its early rural foundations, evidenced by numerous small burial grounds and parish churches like the Saint Anna Catholic Cem and Saints Peter and Paul Cem. Settlement patterns remain clustered around these traditional centers, with small communities like Steinthal, Meggers, and Saint Anna dotting the countryside between larger municipal hubs. Significant wetlands and water bodies, including Hayton Marsh and Schildhauer Pond, break up the grid of agricultural roads, while the New Holstein Municipal Airport reflects the area's modern infrastructure development.
