Welcome to our latest adventure as we visit the Julius Sturgis Pretzel Bakery in the charming town of Lititz, PA! Established in 1861, this historic bakery is the oldest commercial pretzel bakery in America. Join us as we step back in time to explore the rich history and tradition of pretzel-making that has been passed down through generations. From learning about the origins of the pretzel to discovering how Julius Sturgis transformed this humble snack into a beloved American staple, this visit is a treat for history buffs and food enthusiasts alike.

Our guided tour of the Julius Sturgis Pretzel Bakery was nothing short of fascinating. We had the unique opportunity to see the original bakery equipment and techniques used over a century ago, gaining insight into the artisanal process that makes Sturgis pretzels so special. The highlight of the tour was the hands-on experience where we tried our hand at twisting our own pretzels, guided by the expert staff. The friendly and knowledgeable guides shared fun facts and stories, making the tour both educational and entertaining for visitors of all ages.

No visit to the Julius Sturgis Pretzel Bakery would be complete without sampling their delicious pretzels! We indulged in a variety of freshly baked pretzels, each with its own unique flavor and texture. From traditional salted pretzels to sweet cinnamon varieties, there was something to satisfy every palate. We also explored the charming gift shop, stocked with pretzel-themed souvenirs and treats to take home. This visit was a delightful blend of history, hands-on fun, and tasty treats that we can't wait to share with you.
