Traditional inn with seasonal and Franconian dishes. 😋 In summer, the beer garden is also open and offers vegetarian dishes - not just side dishes like in many other inns.

A beautiful, over 300-year-old oak tree 🌳 with a bench underneath. Perfect for a short break during an outing, to have something to eat and enjoy the view. The path that leads past it is a very narrow paved road that is now rarely used.
