One of Germany's oldest restaurants and pubs (dating back to 1454) served its hearty Thuringian and Saxon fare to Martin Luther and the likes -- who certainly had more than a mere pint of the beers on tap here. The menu in the reconstructed, cavernous, and always buzzing dining hall doesn't exactly offer gourmet cuisine but rather an impressively enormous variety of game, fish, and bratwurst dishes. The Thuringian sausages (served with either sauerkraut and potatoes or onions and mashed potatoes) and the famous Thuringian sauerbraten (beef marinated in a sour essence) are a must.
