Grand Chute (French: great fall or "large rapids") is a town in Outagamie County, Wisconsin, United States.

The Town of Grand Chute was formed on April 3, 1849 inside what was then Brown County, Wisconsin.

By state legislative act, Grand Chute was split off of the Town of Kaukaulan (later Kaukauna).

The Town of Grand Chute's boundary at its establishment comprised a much larger area than it has today, formed by what today are the towns of Dale, Hortonia, Greenville, Ellington, and present-day Grand Chute.

[9] In March of that year, residents overwhelmingly approved using town funds to attempt incorporation into a village.

After town hearings in late 1984, Grand Chute petitioned to the State of Wisconsin.

The Wisconsin Department of Development denied the town's request to incorporate on March 25, 1985.

At the time of the denial, the DOD's findings were that some (but not necessarily all) government services would be better provided by the City of Appleton, and that the proposed village was not compact or homogenous.

Grand Chute is the largest town in Wisconsin, both in terms of population (20,919 at the 2010 census)[11] and valuation (over $2.4 billion).

[12] It is part of the Fox Cities metroplex that includes Oshkosh, Neenah, Menasha, and Appleton.

Frequencies are usually every hour and every half-hour on certain routes during peak morning and afternoon times on weekdays.

Greyhound and Lamers offer intercity buses serving such locations as Green Bay, Madison, Oshkosh, Fond du Lac, Milwaukee, and Chicago.
