Norwegian-Americans Historical Markers
Organized emigration from Norway to America started in 1825, when the sloop Restauration sailed from Stavanger to New York with 52 emigrants on board. Norwegian immigrants settled all across the U.S.A., especially in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Iowa, North and South Dakota, New York, Washington, and Texas, establishing cultural organizations. They fought in many wars. These signs and monuments mark their American history.
