—

April 29, 2019

Mercedes-Benz is showcasing a small Baldwin County town in an advertisement that began running on national television in recent days.

In the company’s 30-second ad for its 2019 GLC SUV, Mercedes-Benz features four unique “roadside attractions” across the nation.

The first quirky place displayed in the ad is Elberta, Alabama, with its “Dinosaurs in the Woods.”

Watch:

Off of Barber Parkway in Elberta, you can find four large dinosaur figurines, along with “Bamahenge,” “Lady in the Lake” and other interesting statues in the same area.

The GLC is the smaller version of Mercedes-Benz’s GLE and GLS, which are both produced in Vance, Alabama.
