About Kohler, WI

Originally called Riverside within the rural Town of Sheboygan, the village was founded as a model company town in 1900 when the Kohler Company built a new plant at the location in 1900. The village was incorporated in 1912 as the Village of Kohler. Of the original homes, most built between 1917 and 1931, approximately 95% are owner occupied. The Kohler Company continues to retain final authority over the design of home and business additions, outbuildings and fences in the village to keep them within a certain aesthetic standard. In 1934, 1954-1965, 1983, and 2015, the United Auto Workers and other unions have struck against the Kohler Company, causing limited to major disruptions to village operations.
