Lovingly nicknamed “Michigan’s Little Bavaria,” Frankenmuth will charm you with its German-inspired architecture, lively festivals, and warm hospitality. Settled in 1845 by Lutheran immigrants from Franconia (Germany), its name means “courage of the Franconians.” You can stroll the historic Main Street past traditional German shops, hop on a horse-drawn carriage, browse the world's largest Christmas store at Bronner's Christmas Wonderland, and don’t miss the iconic family-style chicken dinners that have defined the town’s food-tourism legacy.
