About Wittenberg

Located in central Wisconsin's Shawano County, Wittenberg is a quiet village with a relaxed pace and deep regional roots. Sitting right at the crossroads of Highways 29 and 45, it gives residents an easy drive toward Wausau to the west or Green Bay to the east. Downtown has a friendly, walkable feel, dotted with local diners, green spaces, and colorful outdoor murals created by the community's art foundation.

Everyday life here revolves around close neighborhood ties and steady local staples, most notably Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Meats, a multi-generation smokehouse and major area employer. Families are served by the Wittenberg-Birnamwood School District, whose main campus sits on a scenic, wooded stretch of land with nearby streams. For buyers looking for peaceful small-town living with reliable highway connections, Wittenberg makes for a welcoming and practical home base.
