De Soto, Prairie
View
Located on Hwy 35 De Soto is named for the Spanish explorer who discovered
the Mississippi River in 1541. During the Black Hawk War of 1832,
heavy fighting took place between here and the mouth of the Bad
Axe River. Many historical markers detailing local Indian history
and the war’s end can be found along this section of Wisconsin’s
Great River Road.
