Horicon Bank is honored to celebrate 130 years of trusted community banking. Since 1896, we’ve been proud to stand beside our neighbors, and in 2026 we’re commemorating this milestone with a full year of special events and monthly celebrations across our Wisconsin branches. Join us as we recognize 130 years of making a difference—Together, Doing Good.
Our anniversary festivities kicked off in January at our Ripon and Appleton locations and will wrap up in December in Fond du Lac, with community‑focused events happening throughout the year.
