The Waunakee Railroad Depot is a small wooden depot of the Chicago and North Western Railway built in 1896 in Waunakee, Wisconsin. In 1978 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.The railroad is what made Waunakee. Before its arrival, the only thing on the village's site was the blacksmith shop of S.P. Martin. In the late 1860s the Chicago and North Western Railway decided to build a line connecting Madison to St. Paul. As the C&NW planned its route, George Fish and Louis Bacon, who owned land around what would become Waunakee, offered a strip of land for the right of way and $1500 in bonds. The railroad accepted their offer and Fish and Bacon profited when the little depot became a shipping point for the surrounding farmlands. A village grew around it, with stores, schools and churches.In 1896 (or 1892?) the original depot burned and the C&NW built the current depot in 1896. It is a one-story wooden building clad in drop-siding, with wide overhanging eaves supported by brackets, with carved bargeboards in some of the gable peaks.At the peak of rail shipping, sixty trains ran through Waunakee per day, with 14 of them carrying passengers. Passenger service ran until 1963 - freight until 1971.In the 1970s the depot was restored by the Waunakee Arts Council and others, and it was bought from the C&NW with a gift form Bob Reeve, a son of an early depot agent Hubert. Today the depot houses Waunakee's Chamber of Commerce.

St. Peter's Roman Catholic Church is a Neogothic-styled church built in 1901 in the small farming community of Ashton, Wisconsin in the town of Springfield, Dane County, Wisconsin. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.The first settler in the area around St. Peter's arrived in 1848, from Bavaria. In subsequent years, more immigrants arrived from Cologne and Alsace-Lorraine. Many of these people were German Catholics, and they established a local parish, constructing their first church building in 1861. In 1867 they added a Catholic school.By 1901 the parish needed a new church building. Anton Dohman of Milwaukee designed the current building and J.H. Owens of Mazomanie contracted the masonry work. The walls are built of coursed limestone quarried from local farms. The front doors are at the base of a tall centered steeple. Above the door is a rose window, then three lancet windows, then a louvered belfry, then an octagonal spire, then a cross. Small apses project from the sides and a large apse from the back. Limestone buttresses divide the wall surfaces. The main roof is still covered by its original slate shingles.Inside, the nave contains two rows of oak pews, leading to the pinnacled altar in the apse on the south end. In the spandrels above the altar is a mural depicting Christ and his disciples. To the sides are a carved wood pulpit and lecterns. One side apse contains a baptistery and the other a grotto.The complex includes a two-story brick school/convent and a Queen Anne-styled rectory built in 1906, but neither building is included in the NRHP nomination.St. Peter's school, built in 1867, was the only school in Ashton until a public school opened in 1920. Today the church building remains the prominent building in the small community, and the steeple is visible for miles over the surrounding farmlands.
