Frankenmuth is a quaint, picturesque town that looks straight out of a children's storybook. With its lively, colored buildings, authentic food choices, and beautiful scenery, Frankenmuth invites you in and encourages you to stay and explore this Michigan gem. World Atlas says:

Frankenmuth, otherwise known as Michigan’s “Little Bavaria,” oozes with hometown hospitality. Founded by German missionaries, this small town celebrates its heritage at every turn. Starting with food, a trip to Frankenmuth demands a family-style fried chicken dinner, traditionally served with mashed potatoes and cranberry relish.  The town unites each summer at the Bavarian Festival, a days-long celebration featuring polka bands, German beer, and plenty of lederhosen.

Frankenmuth is also known for transforming into a winter wonderland that welcomes visitors with its festive atmosphere and America's largest Christmas shop, Bronner's Christmas Wonderland. Take a trip and enjoy the friendliest town in any season, Frankenmuth.
