Chippewa Falls: Leinenkugel's and the Chippewa River
Chippewa Falls was platted in 1855 at the site of a falls on the Chippewa River, about 10 miles north of Eau Claire. Lumbering drove the early economy, and Jacob Leinenkugel founded his brewery on the banks of the Spring Creek in 1867 to serve the thirsty log drivers and mill workers who had settled the area. Leinenkugel's Brewery continues to operate on the same site, producing beer under the Leinenkugel's brand. The brewery is now part of Molson Coors but remains one of the oldest continuously operating breweries in the United States.
The Cook-Rutledge Mansion, a Queen Anne home built in 1887 by lumber baron Edward Rutledge, stands on a bluff above the city and operates as a historical museum. Irvine Park on the north side of town covers 318 acres and includes a small zoo that has operated since 1906, housing North American species including black bear and bison. The park is one of the oldest municipal parks in Wisconsin still in its original configuration.
Chippewa Falls' population is about 14,700. The city is the county seat of Chippewa County. Seymour Cray, founder of Cray Research and a pioneer of supercomputing, was born and raised in Chippewa Falls, and the company maintained a research facility in the city for decades. A small museum honoring his contributions operates in the city.
