Grüner Jäger, Timber-framed restaurant in Riddagshausen, Germany.
Grüner Jäger is a timber-framed establishment in Riddagshausen at the western edge of Brunswick, comprising multiple buildings in traditional style. The property sits near the Buchhorst nature reserve and operates today as a restaurant with banquet rooms and an outdoor terrace.
The house was founded in 1740 when administrator Selig built a shooting range with an arbor. Later the Riddagshausen monastery took over management and transformed it into an inn.
The name references a huntsman tradition that shaped the location's identity since its early days. Visitors today experience how this heritage is woven into the restaurant's approach to hospitality and regional dining.
The location sits at Ebertallee 50 and is easily accessible from downtown Brunswick. Visitors should know the grounds are spacious with parking available for cars.
French author Stendhal visited this place multiple times between 1806 and 1808 and wrote about his visits in his diary. His accounts connect the location to his well-documented personal life story.
