Frankenmuth is a city in Saginaw County that was originally settled in 1845 by German immigrants. The city retains its historic German character today, with a name that roughly translates as “the courage of the Bavarians.” The city is noted as the home of Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland, the world’s largest Christmas-themed store, and is renowned for its beautiful Bavarian-style architecture and historic and cultural attractions.

Top tourist sites include the Frankenmuth Historical Museum, Michigan’s Military and Space Heroes Museum, and the outdoor Heritage Park, which offers a pavilion hosting public special events.

Families will enjoy the city’s Zehnder's Splash Village Hotel and Waterpark, Frankenmuth Aerial Park, and Grandpa’s Tiny Farm petting zoo, while couples will love its classic Art Deco cinema, historic riverboat tours, and romantic horse-drawn carriage rides.
