We went to America's MOST GERMAN Town! There is a town built in as if it was just out of old "Germany." It's a town in the heart of Helen, Georgia with everything from half-timbered houses to brautwursts and brezel! While visiting the USA we decided to check out this German Town and see how it compares to where we've lived in Germany! What are your thoughts?

There are many actual German speaking communities in the US. This is just a tourist trap.

Actually the most German town is Frankenmuth, MI. It is also home to the WORLDā€™s largest Christmas store! Come visit! šŸ˜Š

This makes me think that if Germany built an "America Town" it would look like Dodge City.

I used to live in Atlanta and loved coming to Helen, but never really thought of it as "German", but more like a Disney version of southern Germany. What IS German about Helen is all the wonderful hiking (backpacking) right around Helen! It sits at the foot/start of the Appalachian Trail :-) I've spent more time backpacking near Helen than in Helen.

If you really want the American/German experience take a trip to the upper Midwest. You will find several little towns with German heritage. Iā€™m from the Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin area and and a lot of the area is German or Dutch. The town I grew up in was mostly Dutch but also German. Some of the old timers still spoke Dutch and German there.

We have Leavenworth in Washintgon you might want to research and visit... It's just getting into the warmer weather here too and it's a beautiful German town

I wonder what Phil would think of Milwaukee, Wisconsin? They have a big German Fest celebration every year, nice German restaurants like Maders, and the famous Usingers Sausage company. Also LOTS of craft beer!! šŸ„ØšŸ»

The Bodensee Restaurant is where you should have gone. I donā€™t think you would have been disappointed. The cook and owners are from Germany. We were there in Dec of 2020 itā€™s a cute little town to go to around Christmas time. Blessings from Oklahoma.

Helen is quaint and charming for sure. Those prices though are bananas.

I think Helen is the third most visited spot in Georgia! Helen was a textile town that was dying in the 1960ā€™s. Someone came up with the idea to re-do the town in a Bavarian style and itā€™s been a success. Unicoi State Park is just 5-10 minutes away: zip line, kayak rentals, camping and a Lodge to stay in- nice park!

I've been to Helen, GA a few times with friends. It's a cute 'german styled town' tourist trap and worth a visit. There are treat shops, trinket shops and several good 'german style' places to eat. Very family friendly during the day and after dark gets louder with the beer gardens. Lots of vacation cabins in nearby towns and moderate priced hotels are walkable to town if you want to get some 'german' drinking night life. During the summer months there is a water park and river tubing. Locals are great!

Frankenmuth, Michigan is a real German town in the US. This is just another themed tourist trap

I wonder what Phil would think of some of the cities in Texas' Hill Country in between San Antonio and Austin that were settled by German immigrants such as Fredericksburg. Also whether Phil can understand Texas German. It'll be interesting to see him reacting to Feli's ( Feli from Germany) reaction to hearing elderly Texans speaking Texas German. The difference between Helen and St. Augustine is that St. Augustine was actually settled by the Spanish in the 1500's and isn't built solely as a tourist trap. I'm sure there are tourist trap areas in St. Augustine, but there's more cultural significance and toes between Spain and the city.

Helen is a tourist trap. Anywhere like that in the US is very expensive.

The Old Bavarian Inn was one of my favorite places to go in Helen. Back in the day the chef was from Germany and made an awesome sauerbraten. May need to plan another trip up there, then hike up to Anna Ruby Falls (then desert at Hofers).

I thought you might have been in Frankenmuth, MI! In addition to being a "little Bavaria" it's known for Zehnder's famous fried chicken and Bronner's, the world's largest Christmas store.

There are a few castle hotels in Germany. There is a fairly big one in Oberwesel and Schloss Rheinfels. There is actually a booklet that was published by the Germany National Tourist Board called Schlosshotels. Knockwurst is also known as knackwurst, they make a snap (knack) sound when biting into them. Knockwurst is just what these sausages are called in North America. My German mother orders them all the time at our local German deli here in Toronto
