Troll. Mount Horeb, Wisconsin - Trollway

I have friends that live in Mount Horeb and went to visit them. I was slightly scared by the amount of trolls in the city. They are everywhere! Even the street signs have little trolls on them. A local dentist's sign has a troll holding a toothbrush.

When I made it into a gift shop in town, I did ask why there are trolls everywhere, since their local magazine had a map of where all the trolls are. They informed me that Norwegian folklore is that trolls protect the crop and make the crops more prosperous. So the trolls are around town for good luck. Makes sense now, but before that, it was kind of creepy. [Lynn Van Hoose, 05/31/2007]

Troll - infrared view. Mount Horeb, Wisconsin - The Trollway

Mt. Horeb is not just home to the well-known Mustard Museum. While you're in town, don't forget to view the Trollway. All along Main Street you can see a large number of troll statues portraying various themes -- like troll tourists. If you are in town for the Mustard Museum (and who could stay away?), be sure to visit the troll statues. [lew, 06/24/2004]
