We didn't think we were going to be able to see the Glockenspiel but our lunch took a little longer than we expected and we were there at around 3 pm so we wandered across the street from Zehnder's to see it.
The Glockenspiel tells the story of the Pied Piper of Hamlin, a rather creepy story about a ratcatcher who strikes a bargain with the villagers of Hamlin to take away the rats in exchange for a fee. He lures them away with his pipe, the rats drown and he asks for his fee. When the villagers renege on their promise he leads all of the children away, except for one blind child and one lame child who go back to the village and tell them what has happened to the children. The children are never seen again.
You can hear the legend of the pied piper at 11 a.m., noon, 3, 5, 6, 9 and 10 p.m. each day at the Bavarian Inn. The Glockenspiel was built in Germany and installed in 1967. Leave a Comment

Bronners, the Christmas store, is always our first stop. Fun to shop, but it's a good idea to eat first, as the little cafe inside is expensive.
Downtown. Enjoy a long walk and the wonderful shops on the "strip" as we call it. Notable places are the Cheese Hause, the Chocolate Shope, Wollen Mill, and of course the wonderful resturants, Bavarian Inn, and Zenders.
Riverwalk Shopping. Lots neat stores, and a nice layout. A bit over priced, but the coffee shop is not to be missed. Leave a Comment Address: Downtown

Bronner's is the world's largerst Christmas store. It's truly a sight to behold.
We visited with our 7 and 10 year old children who were completely enchanted by the store. (My husband didn't think it was all that exciting but it is shopping after all.)
Be sure to bring your camera because outside there are an incredible amount of lifesize (and bigger) Christmas displays. You could take a fantastic photo for your Christmas cards!!
The store is so huge, you are given a map when you enter. There is even a (small) cafeteria inside. As we perused, I kept telling myself that we would only look "around one more corner" but the store just seemed to keep on going, and going, and going....
There is a super cute section called Santa's workshop where kids can pick up a phone and get a message from Santa, too!! Great fun!!

 Zehnder Holz Brucke by Dabs
The Bavarian Inn, incidentally, is run by the Zehnder family who also runs Zehnder's across the street. You could say they have a monopoly on the chicken dinner business in Frankenmuth. Leave a Comment

This is a delightful German-style town in the middle of Michigan. It has some fine shops, restaurants, and quiet streets. Like Holland, it's not quite the real thing, but close enough if you don't want to fly all the way to Europe. And be sure to try to local beer--the absolute best in the Midwest.

The Chees haus is a relatively expansive country style cheesery. They don't make all or even most of their cheeses but they do feature a local style of colby called Pinconning. It isn't very good, has kind of a plastic texture and very little flavor, but it is truly local. The same can't be said for every cheese they stock. Some are really very good! I bought a horseradish swiss cheese that I found appealing but there are lots of others. they also have a good selection of beers and wines, including many dfancy bottles from Eastern Europe. Living in Chicago these were no big deal, but to someone who hasn't been exposed it might be worth the extra money (although cheap in Chicago, not here) to try them. Of course, like every place on Main St., they sell souveniers and funny t-shirts as well. Leave a Comment

You have to visit the mirror of maze!
This place will make you feel young again. It was very fun losing the people you are with and trying to find them in here. Leave a Comment Address: Frankenmuth River Place (989)652-3711
