Stoughton sits on the Yahara River in Dane County, about 17 miles southeast of Madison. Norwegian immigrants settled the area beginning in the 1840s, and the city's cultural identity remains shaped by that heritage. Luther Valley settlers and later arrivals from Telemark and other regions built the farms and churches that still mark the surrounding countryside. Stoughton hosts one of the largest Syttende Mai festivals outside Norway each May 17, drawing tens of thousands to celebrate Norwegian Constitution Day with a parade, traditional food, and folk dancing.
The city was founded in 1847 by Luke Stoughton, a New Yorker who built a sawmill on the Yahara River. The downtown historic district along Main Street preserves several Victorian-era commercial buildings, including the Stoughton Opera House, built in 1901 and still operating as a performance venue. The Opera House was restored in the 1990s and draws touring musicians and theater companies to its 475-seat hall.
Stoughton Trailers, headquartered in the city, manufactures semi-trailers and has been a major employer since 1961. The city's population is about 14,000. The Glacial Drumlin State Trail passes through Stoughton on its route between Waukesha and Cottage Grove, following a former Chicago and Northwestern rail corridor for 52 miles.
