150 Years of Frankenmuth Insurance
1868–2018
The story of Frankenmuth Insurance began
in 1868, when the town of Frankenmuth was
filled with hopes and dreams. Seeking to
spread their faith and create a better life in
America, a handful of German immigrants
founded the town in 1845. Through hard
1849—Students
work and strong bonds of community, the people of and teachers at
Frankenmuth soon carved a new life from the Michigan forests. Hart School Haus.
The town was growing and the future looked bright, but there were
trials. When a storm or fire damaged a barn or a home, the farmers
couldn’t dial up their agent or reach out online. They relied on their neighbors.
Pledging to help each other in times of need, the people of Frankenmuth
formed a mutual alliance of support which would one day become Frankenmuth
Insurance.
In many ways, we’ve come a long way from that small-town pledge. But in one
important way, we haven’t. We’re still neighbor helping neighbor, providing the
peace of mind that only the most trusted friends can offer.
In celebration of all our neighbors, we bring you this 150-year history
of Frankenmuth Insurance.
