Local Area

With a stay at Hotel Eisenhut, you'll be centrally located in Rothenburg ob der Tauber, steps from Rothenburg Town Walls and a 1-minute drive from Marktplatz. The charming Market Square with the town hall is only 600 meters away. In no time at all, be right in the heart of Rothenburg’s Altstadt at Marktplatz. In Rothenburg’s old town, which is enthroned above the Tauber valley on both sides, however narrow the two banks of the valley may be there is always enough space for a mighty and tremendous natural construction:sloping vineyards and innumerable terrace walls support and secure each other, combine into a work of art that is pleasant to look at only from a great distance and masterly close up.

A beautiful nature walk is offered within minutes along the banks of the Main River. A leisurely stroll is possible along the riverside promenade, barges can be watched going by, and on the opposite bank, one sees the impressive ruins of Karlsburg Castle. Moreover, the hotel is directly located on the well-known MainRadweg (Main Cycle Path), hence an exceptionally comfortable stopping place for cyclists who would be able to kick off their journey right from the doorstep.

All was within walking distance in the town’s attractions. A quick walk into the centre brings visitors to the imposing St Andreas parish church, and there’s also the Local History Museum a little further on. Culinary requirements can be satisfied within the hotel itself by its restaurant or in the Old Town with several other traditional Franconian ‘Gasthäuser’ and wine bars. Fresh bread and pastry are practical needs that can be satisfied by a bakery just around the corner, and all other essential shops are within a few steps.
