Heim Mound

National Register of Historic Places

 

Located off of Mound Drive in Middleton and well marked by the City of Middleton (Middleton Landmark Monument), this fox effigy

was, until recently, totally covered by the thicket of shrubs, saplings and large trees. The vegetation was so lush, that even

the monument was obscured in summer months. However, thanks to a group of dedicated volunteers and helpful officials, the site

is being cleansed of invasive species, and currently sports a rich selection of spring ephemerals and other local plants.
