Frutillar, German heritage city on Lake Llanquihue, Chile.
The city spreads along the southern shore of Lake Llanquihue, with wooden buildings painted in bright colors against the backdrop of distant volcanoes.
German settlers established Frutillar in November 1856 under the guidance of Vicente Pérez Rosales, marking the beginning of substantial European influence in southern Chile.
The Teatro del Lago concert hall hosts musical performances throughout the year, including the annual Festival de la Cielo that brings together musicians from different countries.
Visitors can reach Frutillar by regular bus services from Puerto Varas, with the journey taking approximately 45 minutes along the lake shore road.
The German Colonial Museum features original structures from the 19th century, including a functioning water mill that demonstrates traditional grain processing methods.
