No matter how the worldwide fear of clowns got started, all they want to do is bring joy to people. In Wisconsin, they still do. The International Clown Hall of Fame is in Baraboo, a town that, itself, has an expansive circus history. Whether you're afraid of clowns or love them, wandering this small museum will introduce you to history's greatest clowns, some historical clowning memorabilia, and all the clown paraphernalia you never knew you needed.
