Dacada, Wisconsin
Dacada, Wisconsin
Dacada, Wisconsin, is an unincorporated community located in the towns of Belgium and Holland in Ozaukee and Sheboygan counties. It is east of Random Lake and northwest of Belgium. The community was settled by immigrants from Luxembourg in the 1840s and 1850s, and the name is derived from "Dakota." Early residents built a Catholic church, known as St. Nicholas, in 1849. The original church was a log cabin, replaced by a stone church in 1863, and again in 1911. Dacada is split between Sheboygan and Ozaukee counties, with local residents noting that they were baptized in Sheboygan County and buried in Ozaukee. The community is known for its peaceful atmosphere and outdoor activities, making it a great spot for nature enthusiasts.
