This is where tradition meets modern zeitgeist. Both in the sensual enjoyment of Thuringian cuisine and its culinary variations as well as in the history surrounding the famous inn in the heart of Erfurt's old town.

And you too are welcome to our Köstritzer Schwarzbierhaus "Zum Güldenen Rade" on Erfurt's historic Marktstraße 50, part of the famous Via Regia trade route. In the heart of the state capital, between the cathedral square and the Erfurt city hall, enjoy our homemade specialties of Thuringian cuisine, Mediterranean delicacies and refreshing original Köstritzer beer.
