Here you can enjoy cappuccino served on original Mitropa tableware and a veeeery delicious solyanka with a warm roll. Inside, the nostalgic interior is worth a visit!

Not drinking water. However, it is recommended for cooling down on hot days.

The town of Henfstädt can be traced back to the year 914, but is said to have been settled much earlier. The town essentially dates back to three noble estates. The families' gravestones can still be seen in the cemetery chapel.

The Amtshaus is actually the most impressive and beautiful house in Themar and is built in a typical Henneberg half-timbered style.
