The “Riesen” can truly be called the oldest princely residence in Germany.
The estate “Zum Riesen” was already mentioned in documents dating back to the mid-12th century. In 1314, shortly after his election as king, Ludwig the Bavarian stayed at the “Riesen” in Miltenberg, and Karl IV took up residence here for eight days in February 1368. The documents relating to these events are no longer available today.
The first documented mention of the “giant” is historically verified in a court book from 1411.
Setting
Exciting.
Between fall 1999 and April 2001, the interior was completely renovated on behalf of the Faust brewery in Miltenberg. Special attention was paid to the historical significance of this building.
Today, we have a traditional tavern of a high standard here, where, as we learn from other guests, both Miltenberg locals and visitors feel equally at home. Traditional and unique at the same time!
Our recommendation
The menu is fine. I think there's something for everyone.
Highly recommended.
