History

The annual "Catfish Festival" and Fireman's Fishfry takes place typically the 2nd weekend of August every year. It is also home to the world's longest mainstreet without an adjoining intersection and the Catfish Capitol of Wisconsin. The museum features historic beer and brewing memorabilia, including signs, advertisements, bottles, cans, and miscellaneous paraphernalia.

In 1839, the leaders of three settlements (Snake Hollow, sometimes called Head of the Hollow, Van Buren, and La Fayette) decided to combine the villages. Potosi was the home of the Potosi Brewing Company, makers of "Good Old Potosi Beer," from 1852 to 1972. The village is located within the Potosi (town), Wisconsin of Potosi.
