Mayville was incorporated as a city in 1845. Originally inhabited by the Fox, Potawatomi, and Winnebago native American tribes, the surrounding area was mainly populated by German immigrants in the mid-19th century. The development of Mayville began in 1845 with the arrival of William Foster and Chester and Eli May, who established a power site and mill on the Rock River. These efforts promoted the early settlement of the village.

(Main Street Mayville was designated a Historical District in 1994. The district is composed of most of the historic downtown commercial business center of Mayville. Most of the District runs along Main Street and consists of a streetscape of nineteenth and early twentieth century commercial buildings. The Eastern boundary of the district is the beautiful Rock River, which runs the length of the town. The Hollenstein Wagon Factory, and the Mayville Limestone School Museum are both local historic landmarks.)
