Advertising Museum-Third Ward (Downtown)
This museum is the ONLY museum of its kind in the world. It's focus is to remind us of many advertising campains implemented since the early part of the 20th century. The curators remind us that " You can tell the ideas of a nation through its advertisements". Very nice interactive and rotating exhibits.

Basilica- St Josaphat
This Milwaukee landmark was built on the South side of Milwaukee during the early 20th century. The parrish built this basilica with the remnants of the Chicago Post Office after the Great Chicago Fire. The Basilica is a close similie of St. Peter's Basilica in Rome (at 1/10 scale!). If you're interested in Art, Architecture or History this is a must see while in Milwaukee!
