The county is situated in the Driftless Area, a region characterized by picturesque hills, valleys, and unique geological features, as it was largely untouched by glaciers during the last Ice Age. The county seat, Sparta, was chosen in 1859. The region encompasses a total area of 908 square miles, with a population of around 46,000 residents.
