Delafield derives its distinctive character from the land on which it was built. Glacial forces laid the groundwork for its gorgeous landscape, forming the gentle hills, sparkling lakes, and clear river streams that continue to captivate visitors to this day. It was this same stunning backdrop that drew Native American fishing and hunting camps as well as European settlers to the area. By the mid-19th century, herds of sheep could be found grazing the hills. Grist and sawmills began to appear along the streams as more settlers discovered its quiet beauty.
This little settlement, once populated by just a handful of farmers and merchants, is now a thriving community of more than seven thousand residents.

A PLACE IN HISTORY - 1837
Delafield was established among the gently rolling hills of
western Waukesha County on the cusp of the Ice Age Trail
and the Kettle Moraine State Forest.

1843 The Naming of Delafield
Early documents show the name as “Hayopolis,”
which was shortly changed to the Indian name,

changed to “Delafield” in honor of early settler,
Charles Delafield of Milwaukee.

1851 Church Erected
St. John’s Chrysostom Church, or “Little Red Church on the Hill,”
was erected in Gothic Revival architecture. In 1972,
the church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

At the Battle of Gettysburg during the American Civil War in 1863, Delafield native First Lieutenant Alonzo H. Cushing fell at the young age of 22.
