Administration

Welcome to our city. The City of Columbus, WI is proud of our many positive attributes. We are a friendly community which features an historic downtown, beautiful parks, a hospital, Amtrak Station, Community Center, Aquatic Center, top-rated schools and easy access to both lively urban and scenic rural areas.

Stop at one of our downtown shops for gifts, antiques or a locally brewed beer and then stay to enjoy a tasty meal at one of our restaurants. Try kayaking and canoeing on the Crawfish River or go for a swim at our Aquatic Center. Admire our many historic buildings or enjoy our wonderful parks. We are especially known for our beautiful redbud trees which bloom in the spring.
