#TodayinHistory in 1871, the Peshtigo Fire tore through northeastern Wisconsin—burning 1.2 million acres, destroying 17 towns, and claiming up to 2,500 lives. It remains the deadliest wildfire in U.S. history, though often forgotten beside the Great Chicago Fire. A sobering reminder of how human activity, land use, and extreme weather can collide—with lessons that still shape how we prepare for and prevent disaster today. 🌲🔥 #OnThisDay #PeshtigoFire #ClimateHistory #WildfireAwareness | Anthrop

Peshtigo marks 150th anniversary of 1871 fire

The Miracle of the Fire, we honor the anniversary of the Peshtigo Fire of 1871, when the people of the countryside fled in desperation to this holy ground praying the Rosary as flames approached. Miraculously, the fire stopped at the fence line of what is now The National Shrine of Our Lady of Champion the very site where Mary appeared to Adele Brice in 1859. We walk in the footsteps of faith and protection. 🙏🕊️ #OurLadyOfChampion #MiracleOfTheFire #PeshtigoFire #Catholic #Rosary #MarianAppari
