History
Rocky Knoll Sanatorium opened in 1926 for the treatment of TB for people in Sheboygan County. The facility served TB patients until the mid to late 1950's when it began to shift toward the treatment of the elderly. The last of the old sanatorium buildings was demolished in 1992. A new medical facility that serves the county rests on the former grounds of this sanatorium.
