Rau’s is such a special store, many reviews sound like quick walk throughs. There is so much more the store — lace, dollhouses, best nightlight selection I have ever seen, old fashioned candy, fun magnets & signs, unique selection of
Sweatshirts & various holiday nicknacks, wall Art & décor, fine tea china accessories. A destination every time we come to Frankenmuth

It’s probably worth a few minutes of your time walking through and checking out all of what they have to offer.

Love this store and other reviewers have failed to mention their awesome dollhouse shop downstairs! I got my daughter a dollhouse kit for Christmas (it only took me a 2 months to build it). Their staff was incredibly fun and helpful assisting me in finding what I needed and answering all my questions.
I also have to heap praise on their penny candy selection and their amazing barrel of pickles! They have a pretty large assortment of cookie cutters and table linens. It’s a great place to find unique gifts!

Pretty cool surprisingly large store that sells just about every thing you could think of… Some of my favorite finds:
A selection of vintage bags and posters of the good ol’ days women of the household, with phrases such as «It’s okay… I didn’t want to enjoy my life any way.» or «Say it with carbohydrates!», a Juicy Couture scented candle, a huge selection of colorful mini tea pots, and gourmet out of the barrel pickles.
If you’re in the area being a tourist for the day, Rau’s is the perfect spot to find that special something you’re looking for.

Cool place to spend a couple minutes and maybe pick up some touristy gifts for back home. I liked their sign collection especially and all the old style candies. Not really the best place to bring a stroller into but that’s pretty much true throughout all of Frankenmuth’s shops.
I’d both recommend and stop by again next year.

Like taking a step back in time. They have a little bit of everything. They also carry a wide selection of tin signs, from cars, to gas stations, and everything in between.

They bill themselves as Michigan’s Must Unusual Country Store. It was interesting. And it was unusual. It had great variety — good candy selection, some home goods (table coverings, some furntire, knick knacks etc.) and a great selection of painted metal signage.
Wasn’t really our style of store — but I could see people enjoying it.
Would I recommend — yeah, I think so.
Woudl I return — Yeah, I’d take a walk thru again.
