In 1884, the Ringling Bros. founded their Circus in Baraboo. For thirty-four years, until 1918, the circus used these very buildings here on Water Street as their winterquarters.

The Ringling Bros. Circus, starting pathetically small, grew into the "World's Greatest Shows". After the circus absorbed Barnum & Baily, the Ringling's became "The Greatest Show on Earth".

The original Ringling winterquarters are now the home of the Circus World museum.
