Douglas County is located in the northwest corner of the great state of Wisconsin, named after Stephen A. Douglas, a prominent American politician, and the Democratic presidential nominee in 1860. The county was founded on February 8, 1854, and covers an area of approximately 1,336 square miles. Its county seat is the city of Superior.

Douglas County originally consisted of only a small part of its present area; it expanded over time as it annexed land from neighboring La Pointe and St. Croix counties. It played a significant role in the timber and transportation industries due to its location on Lake Superior, the largest of the Great Lakes. These industries contributed to the growth of the region, as did the arrival of immigrants, particularly from Scandinavian countries, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Superior, located at the head of Lake Superior, became a notable transportation and shipping hub, with several railroads connecting the city to the rest of the country. In 1883, Wisconsin Point, a sandbar near Superior Bay, was the site of the construction of the Wisconsin Central Railroad's Allouez Ore Docks, where iron ore was shipped across the Great Lakes. This event marked a boom period in the economic development of Douglas County.

Today, Douglas County remains an important center for transportation, trade, and industry, with its economy being supported by a diverse range of businesses such as manufacturing, healthcare, and education.

Fun Fact: In Pattison State Park, located in Douglas County, visitors can find Big Manitou Falls, the highest waterfall in Wisconsin at 165 feet. The falls are taller than the renowned Niagara Falls and are a popular destination for tourists and nature enthusiasts in the region.
