Our History

Our experience is based on a long tradition. On February 13th, 1794 our house was mentioned for the first time in the land register and from that day on it was known as a very popular inn.

The inn was a house where farmers and merchants stopped to get themselves and their horses supplied and accommodated before they went to the marketplaces in the town. Situated at the outskirt and at the only exit road of Mühlhausen, the inn became very popular within a short time and it had to be enlarged little by little. When the merchants returned successfully from the markets, they ate, drank, debated and sang in the inn. Even at that time they loved to eat the good and solid Thuringian food which was offered there. After another century passed off, the building of the train station at the other side of Mühlhausen started. During this time the vernacular created the dictum of the “Ammersche Bahnhof” and we kept this as our name until today. The name became quite popular among the inhabitants of Mühlhausen and the guests of the inn; here you like to stop for a bite to eat and buy a so-called ticket: ordering a glass of beer and a glass of schnapps.

Since 1957 the third generation of family Nolte is managing the inn. Due to our extensive know-how and diligence, we keep the tradition alive and our typical Thuringian food became famous in the meantime far beyond the borders of the town.

The hotel and restaurant „Ammerscher Bahnhof“ is owned by Imme Kleimenhagen (née Nolte) and Matthias Kleimenhagen since 2002. And even now the next generation is ready to face the gastronomic challenges.
