A Local's Perspective

Life in Belleville.

The Village of Belleville was incorporated in 1892 and sits on both sides of the Dane–Green county line. The Sugar River flows through the village and widens into Lake Belle View on the north side, and the old village center is laid out around Library Park.

WIS-69 connects Belleville north toward Verona and Madison and south toward New Glarus. The Badger State Trail, a former rail line, passes through the village on its way between the Madison area and the Illinois border.
