 Thiensville,
an attractive, self-governed village just one square mile in size, is
located in the heart of the city of Mequon. Although the Village was
officially incorporated in 1910, its settlement began in the 1840’s and
has developed into a picturesque community adjacent to the Milwaukee
River. In 1842 Jochim Heinrich Thien settled in the area
and bought 148 acres, built a mill and thus "Thiensville" was born
 The
