This towel is inspired by the towels used at the historic Pendarvis House restaurant in Mineral Point, WI.
Tucked away in a valley in historic Mineral Point, Pendarvis celebrates the groundbreaking community of some of the first Wisconsin “badgers.” As you approach this charming neighborhood, the 19th century will instantly come alive through the quintessential limestone buildings and cozy nooks.
Business and life partners Bob Neal and Edgar Hellum met in 1934 and dedicated their lives to saving the structures and stories of Mineral Point’s mining history. The couple salvaged, restored, and made these buildings shine again, even establishing a popular restaurant on the site to fund their preservation efforts. In 1971, the site's ownership transitioned to the Wisconsin Historical Society. Today, Pendarvis is one of the Wisconsin Historical Society's many historic sites & museums.
