History

The facility was demolished sometime in the 1950s. There is still a cemetery, near Fox Valley Technical College west of Appleton in Grand Chute, the final resting place for 140 residents of the former Outagamie County Asylum for the Chronic Insane, which stood nearby. The site is now Brewster Village Long Term Care Facility.
