History
When Theodore Fischer arrived from Germany in 1876, he quickly established himself by building the fourth hotel in the growing settlement of Frankenmuth. First named the Union House Hotel, and later Fischer’s Hotel, it operated as a staple restaurant/hotel for several decades (of course serving the all-you-can-eat chicken dinners). It was in 1894 when owner Theodore decided to add a hall behind his hotel, to be used for parties, weddings, performances, and meetings. Fischer Hall was used for just that and has seen through several local celebrations and changes in Frankenmuth, including the sale of Fischer’s Hotel to the Zehnder family, who later renamed the hotel The Bavarian Inn Restaurant. The Hall was later donated to the Frankenmuth Historical Association and moved on October 27, 1986. It has since been restored to its original look and today is rented out for weddings, parties, meetings, and gatherings - just like in 1894.
