Welcome to the restaurant of the hotel Kains Hof
The Kains Hof, built in 1871, used to be a farm on which the owners mainly kept horses.
The traditionally Thuringian timber-framed buildings that enclose the yard on three sides were later used as residential houses and for agriculture. The building in which you now find the restaurant used to hold stables.
On the wall in the entry way of our hotel, you can look at an interesting photographic documentation of the extensive reconstruction process of the Kains Hof. The main construction work was finished in 1995.
The name of our hotel and restaurant has nothing to do with Kane and Abel from the Bible (even though the German spelling of "Kane" is "Kain") – that would provide for a bad reputation. "Kain" was the name of the father of the first owner of the hotel.
Since 2009, the restaurant and the hotel have been owned by Mr. and Mrs. Klages.
We are keen to use local products for the preparation of our meals. We pay attention that our distributors sell meat from appropriately kept animals and that they run an energy-conserving production.
Our meals are prepared fresh "à la carte". Therefore, a small waiting period is unavoidable. We try to keep the time during which you wait for your meal as small as possible.
