Dheinsville, Wisconsin

Dheinsville is an important historical settlement (modern day neighborhood) in the village of Germantown, Wisconsin, Washington County, United States. Dheinsville is located at the intersection of Highway 167 (Holy Hill Road) and State Highway 145, Holy Hill Road, Maple Road, on the left when traveling east on Holy Hill Road. Dheinsville was established in 1842 by the Philip Dhein family. The village contains original half-timber buildings (fachwerk), reflecting the building-construction patterns of the early pioneers who came here from the Hunsruck area of Germany. The historic commercial center consists of log, quarried limestone, brick, and clapboard buildings dating from early settlement through the Victorian period. An important part of eastern Wisconsin’s 19th-century settlement corridor, Dheinsville preserves the built environment of pioneer life.
