Wirtshaus an der Lahn, Historical restaurant building in Dausenau, Germany.

The Wirtshaus an der Lahn stands directly on the banks of the Lahn River, featuring traditional timber-frame architecture with multiple dining rooms.

Built in 1680, this establishment provided lodging for bargemen and carters, later hosting General Blücher during his stay in winter 1814.

Between 1774 and 1815, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe visited this establishment more than six times, leaving an inscription on an oak table.

Located at Lahnstrasse 12 in Dausenau, the restaurant serves German cuisine and maintains regular opening hours for both lunch and dinner.

The oak table where Goethe carved his message about mixing wine with water remained visible until 1935, protected by a glass plate.
