The nun who took us on a tour was very gracious. Not only did I receive a tour of the church, but was also shown a video. Then she also took us to see the archives which was phenomenal, and displayed the history of the church dating back many years. She talked about how there have been 2 people praying around the clock since the church opened, and how prayer requests can be submitted. Although this is not my denomination, I was impressed with the humility displayed and how much care the sisters here take to fulfill their mission. The stained glass is exceptional. This tour is best with no more than a small group.

Everyone on the float was so friendly. Caught a couple of big memorable fish - a catfish and a sturgeon - in addition to some smaller fish. We can’t wait to go back and fish there again.

The Loggers aren't in town enough! For a small town minor league team, the Loggers at Copeland Park is a fun experience for the whole family. If you can, take in a game!

I would rename this page into Hixon Forest. The forest is a sprawling entity, with multiple trails and many parking lots, and divided into subsections. Upper Hixon Forest is just one such subsection. This gem was gifted to the city of La Crosse by Ellen Hixon ages ago. Her monument and the story are commemorated at the Grandad Bluff - separate La Crosse Park bordering Hixon Forest.

The Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe will forever be a spiritual destination for visitors from all over the world. The Shrine is nestled on over 100 acres of God’s Country in the Mississippi River Valley. In addition to the many beautiful chapels, statues, gardens, and devotional areas, the Shrine has a full service cafe and gift shop. The Shrine is open daily, there is never a charge for visiting, and the public is welcome. In it's Mission the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in La Crosse, Wisconsin, faithful to the message of the Blessed Virgin Mary through her appearances on the American continent in 1531, serves the spiritual needs of those who suffer poverty in body and soul. It is a place of ceaseless prayer for the corporal and spiritual welfare of God’s children, especially those in most need.
From the beauty of the welcome center to the scenic walk up to the Chapel, the site was amazing. It was beautiful, scenic, refreshing, contemplative and so much more. What an inspiring visit.

St. Rose Convent has an interesting history and a sister from the order gives a very informed and interesting tour of the property and chapel. It has many unique and unnusual facts related to its construction, a fire long ago, and the perpetual prayer that has continued everyday, 24 hours a day, for 140 years.

Historic Hixon House is a gem in downtown La Crosse. The original home began construction in 1858. Tour the home and hear of the Hixon family, their contributions to La Crosse, and their efforts to build this beautiful home. Hixon House is open seasonally- Memorial Day through Labor Day.
We enjoyed all the information told to us about the family and the house! We wanted more...like a book about the family, etc but there hasn't been one written, I guess?
