Mount Angel
Village of the Bells
With hazelnut and hop fields in the distance, clock and church towers chime the time of day in this Bavarian-style village. Complete with thematic architecture and authentic cuisine (especially sausage), Mount Angel is proud of its Germanic roots, relationship with faith, and is renowned for its annual Oktoberfest.
