This authentic 1970s colour photograph, captured in 1972, documents the exterior of the original Frankenmuth Cheese Haus in Frankenmuth, Michigan. The archival image prominently features the shop’s famous figural mascot: a large grey mouse emerging from a giant yellow wedge of Swiss cheese, which also served as a “Snack Bar” menu board for ice cream and imported cheese. The mascot is situated in a paved parking lot bordered by low flower beds of white and yellow marigolds. In the background, period-correct vehicles are visible, including a gold Ford Ranchero and a light green Buick Electra 225. To the left, a simple white clapboard building serves as the retail space. Founded in 1968, the Frankenmuth Cheese Haus became a landmark destination for travelers seeking high-quality cheeses and unique souvenirs. The business is still standing today. This factual record preserves the quaint, roadside-attraction charm of Frankenmuth during the early seventies. All our images are available as royalty-free instant downloads for use in books, media, and creative projects – or make your own prints for home, work, or as a truly unique gift.
