Friends of Perry Parks

The Town of Perry currently has two parks:

Hauge Historic District Park
1399 County Rd Z
Mount Horeb, WI

This park is Wisconsin’s first Town Historic District Park and Dane County’s first Historic Overlay District.  It surrounds the Hauge Log Church National Historic Site.  The Historic Hauge District Park is located 30 minutes west of Madison on County Highway Z.  The park was created to preserve the Site’s unobstructed scenic views, to protect its peace and serenity from threatened development, and to respect the souls buried in its cemetery.  Financial support from Town residents and worldwide donors makes this park possible.

For more details on the park, please see the
Hauge District Park Brochure


Daleyville Community Park

The Daleyville Park is located on the west side of the Daleyville settlement and is approximately one acre in size.  Located on property donated to the Town in 2002 by the Ranum family, it will be developed as a community-based family park.  Daleyville Map
