Beloit: Rock River College Town on the Illinois Border
Beloit sits on the Rock River at the Illinois state line in the southernmost part of Wisconsin. The city was settled in 1837 by New England migrants. Beloit College, founded in 1846, maintains a small private liberal arts campus on the east side of the river and is one of the oldest higher education institutions in the Midwest. The college's Logan Museum of Anthropology holds extensive archaeological and ethnographic collections.
Fairbanks Morse, an engine manufacturer with a continuous presence in Beloit since the 1890s, has produced industrial and military diesel engines for over a century. The company's Beloit works still supply engines for US Navy ships. The Ironworks Hotel and event center downtown occupies a former Beloit Corporation foundry and represents one of several adaptive reuse projects along the riverfront.
The Rock River bisects Beloit, and the riverwalk extends through downtown linking civic spaces. Angel Museum, housed in a former church, held a collection of more than 13,000 angel figurines including a donation from Oprah Winfrey before the museum closed. ABC Supply, the roofing and siding distributor, maintains its headquarters in Beloit.
