Allouez Township

Allouez Township is best known within Michigan’s Copper Country for its historic copper-mining landscape. It occupies part of the Keweenaw Peninsula, where forest, inland waters and former mining sites spread between Lake Superior’s northern shore and the peninsula’s interior. Gratiot Lake lies within the township, adding a quiet freshwater counterpoint to the exposed Superior coastline. The township takes its name from the Allouez Mining Company, one of the enterprises active during the Keweenaw copper boom.
