Madison History Roundtable
OUR HISTORY
The Madison History Roundtable is dedicated to the discussion and preservation of American history. Founded in 1954 as the Madison Civil War Roundtable, the group has expanded to cover a broader area of American history with emphasis on the American Civil War, U.S. military history and Wisconsin history.
We are excited to kick off the 2022-2023 season by meeting in person at the HopHaus in Fitchburg, WI. You will receive monthly meeting notices via email, as well as the MHRT website and Facebook page. We will continue to post the meeting presentations on our YouTube channel.
