Twelve Mile Circle – An Appreciation of Unusual Places

The House on the Rock

Spring Green, Wisconsin, USA (August 12, 2002)

This doesn’t even begin to show the uniqueness of The House on the Rock

I am not even sure how to describe The House on the Rock near Spring Green, Wisconsin (map). Is it a house? Or is it a museum? Maybe it’s a cluttered attic on steroids? Did some ancient flea market suffer a devastating explosion and leave its detritus in southwestern Wisconsin? Whatever it may be, it’s totally overwhelming and can’t possibly be appreciated in a single visit. It’s strange, twisted, and wonderful. I shake my head every time I think about it. The House on the Rock defines “Only in America.”
