Schinkenkrug, German restaurant in Hinrichshagen, Rostock, Germany.
The Schinkenkrug is a restaurant with adjoining guest house in a half-timbered building with a thatched roof, located between Rostock and the seaside town of Graal-Müritz near the Baltic coast. The house serves regional Mecklenburg cuisine and provides holiday apartments for overnight stays.
The house was founded in 1811 and has a long tradition as a guest house in the region. In 2021, Cindy and Kai Rickmann took over the establishment and have continued to run it since.
The name comes from the cured ham that was traditionally made here and remains a kitchen specialty. Visitors can eat local Mecklenburg recipes like duck leg with apple and potato dumplings in the same setting where these dishes have been prepared for generations.
The restaurant is open daily from 11:30 AM to 10:00 PM and can be contacted by phone. Visitors should note that the building is in a rural area and it is wise to reserve in advance.
The building has preserved its original thatched roof and timber-frame structure to this day, making it a rare example of 19th-century rural architecture. These original features give the place an authentic feel that attracts visitors interested in historical construction.
