The half-timbered house was built around 1721 and has been in the family since 1756. There is a jug justice of the Duke of Brunswick from 1837, which irrevocably grants the right to operate a restaurant. The small window in the dining room is reminiscent of the duke of Brunswick’s debt collector, who collected the farmers’ taxes. We have been serving Allersheimer Urpils since the Allersheim brewery was founded in 1854.
