History

[edit]

Also known as the Sevona Memorial Cottage, the cabin was built in part with salvaged wreckage of the Sevona in 1905.[2] It was constructed by former Lieutenant Governor of Wisconsin Sam Fifield. The cabin was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976 and to the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places in 1989.
