Description
Prickings-Hof is an agricultural complex with animal facilities, a butcher shop, and a restaurant set across a large property. The site combines livestock farming with food production and a dining establishment that serves visitors and locals.
History
The farm has roots going back centuries, but was rebuilt and expanded by the Döpper and Pricking families after World War II. This reconstruction shaped what visitors see today.
