Manitowoc County — The Only Freshwater Submarine Port in WWII

Manitowoc holds a distinction unique in American industrial history: during World War II, the Manitowoc Shipbuilding Company built 28 submarines for the U.S. Navy — the only freshwater port in the world to do so. Over 7,000 workers labored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to build these vessels, which were then floated down the Manitowoc River, through Lake Michigan, and down the Illinois Waterway to the Mississippi River to reach the ocean. Twenty-five of these Manitowoc-built submarines saw action in the Pacific, sinking 132 enemy ships totaling over 488,000 tons. The USS Cobia — a National Historic Landmark — is permanently docked at the Wisconsin Maritime Museum on the Manitowoc River as a memorial to this achievement. Two Rivers, the county's second largest city, claims the title of birthplace of the ice cream sundae, dating to 1881 when Edward Berners reportedly first served ice cream with chocolate syrup on a Sunday.
