Regensburg Sausage Kitchen, Medieval restaurant near Stone Bridge in Regensburg, Germany.
Regensburg Sausage Kitchen is a stone building beside the Danube River where grilled sausages cook over charcoal in an open kitchen visible to diners. The narrow structure holds the cooking area and simple seating spaces arranged so visitors watch the preparation up close.
The building was constructed around 1135 as an office for the Stone Bridge construction project. Over time it became a restaurant serving workers and boatmen at the river.
The kitchen preserves Bavarian cooking traditions that visitors can watch in the open preparation area. Staff use methods passed down through generations while making sausages in front of diners.
The kitchen opens early in the morning and stays open into the evening, making it convenient to visit before or after exploring the city. Visitors should expect to wait during busy times, as space is limited and it draws many people daily.
This location is considered one of the oldest places in the world where food is prepared using methods that have remained largely unchanged since the 12th century. Its continuous operation at the same spot marks it as historically noteworthy.
