Auerbachs Keller in Leipzig stands as a renowned restaurant with a culinary legacy, serving 36,000 beef roulades and 90,000 liters of beer annually. Established in the 16th century, it has historical ties to Martin Luther and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who drew inspiration from its ambiance for his drama 'Faust.' The restaurant celebrates a unique tradition of communal dining, embodying its rich history through its 500-year anniversary festivities that resonate with guests worldwide, particularly admirers of Goethe's literary masterpiece.
"We have around 300,000 guests a year, many of them from abroad," Tanja Pieper stated, highlighting the restaurant's global appeal and historic significance.
The key 500-year anniversary celebrations included the so-called great feast, inspired by Goethe, where long tables reflect the conviviality of past epochs.
