Go behind the scenes and unlock the history of Club 400!

Club 400 is excited to participate in Waukesha Unlocked 2026 on Sunday, October 11. For one day, we’re inviting the community to explore more of our historic building and discover the stories behind a Waukesha landmark that dates back more than 130 years.

From the Northwestern Hotel to Club 400

Our building was constructed in 1894 as the Northwestern Hotel, serving passengers arriving by train across the street. Today, it is home to Club 400—but there’s much more to the building than what you see during a typical visit.

During Waukesha Unlocked, we’ll walk visitors through the building, share its history, and provide a look at areas guests may not normally experience, including the upstairs and basement.

Tours will take place approximately every half hour and last about 15 minutes.
