As part of Manitoba’s centennial celebration, the local German community donated funds to build the Fairy Tale Cottage in 1970 at Kildonan Park. Better known as the Witch’s Hut, its round stone structure is topped by wooden shakes. As you walk through the red door you will see panels portraying the Hänsel and Gretel fairytale by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. The story was first published in 1812. Then, climb the circular staircase to view a scene of all three characters from this Brothers Grimm classic children’s tale. Admission is free.
