About Racine County

Racine County, Wisconsin, is a place where history and innovation intersect. From its rich heritage and economic prowess to its natural beauty and vibrant arts scene, the county offers a diverse array of experiences. For example, history comes to life at the Racine Heritage Museum, where visitors can explore exhibits detailing the county’s past.

"The Spark"

In 1873, the Rev. Dr. J. W. Carhart from Racine created and piloted the initial light self-propelled highway vehicle in the United States, likely one of the earliest globally. This vehicle, dubbed “the Spark,” utilized a two-cylinder steam engine for power, directed by a lever, and could reach speeds of up to five miles per hour. Years later, at the 1908 International Automobile Exposition in Paris, France, Carhart was honored as the “Father of Automobiles,” receiving both a cash prize and a certificate of distinction for his innovative invention.
