Brief History: St. Bartholomew Episcopal Church was founded in 1894 and a church, made up of fieldstone donated from local farmers, was built in 1900 on Lake Street in Pewaukee. Worshippers numbered between eight and 18, traveling from Nashotah, Hartland and Pewaukee.
In 1997, St. Bartholomew's moved from its downtown Pewaukee location to a new and larger church and current location on the corner of Highway 164N and Paul Court. Several additions have increased the size of the building as the parish continues to develop and grow. Plans to further expand the church, including an outdoor worship area and pavilion, are currently underway.
