Check with the New Glarus information booth for tour details. You can watch a video presentation of Swiss cheese production the old fashioned way in the Swiss Historical Village museum's K seri, or Cheese Factory. The production was filmed on location, using the antique cheesemaker's tools, and the giant antique copper vats once common in Green County's cheese factories. Europeans have a reputation for specialty sausages, and in New Glarus you will find variations of original family recipes brought directly from Switzerland. Ruef's Kalberwurst, Mettwurst, and Landjaeger, and Hoesly's Landjaeger offer a taste of that true old world flavor.
Swiss cuisine is considered among the finest in the world.
When you dine in New Glarus, choices include rich, yet delicately flavored specialties such as Schnitzel, Geschnetzelets, Swiss meatballs, Roesti potatoes, and the perennial Swiss favorite Cheese or Beef Fondue. Most menus include a delectable selection of Swiss and European style desserts. You are sure to find the lunch and dinner choices so great that one trip to New Glarus will provide insufficient time for an adequate sampling. Swiss pastries and crusty European breads are specialties at the New Glarus Bakery. You won't be able to resist taking home some.
