Zills Tunnel, Restaurant and cultural heritage monument in Leipzig, Germany
Zills Tunnel occupies a five-story building at Barfußgäßchen 9, featuring rounded arch openings, bay windows, and distinct architectural elements from Leipzig Renaissance.
The establishment originated as Schrepfers Coffee House in 1769, transformed into Burckhardts Beer Tunnel by 1785, and received its current name when Johann Gottfried Zill acquired it in 1841.
The venue maintains traditional Saxon gastronomy with its beer hall featuring barrel vaults and wine room that reflects regional dining customs through centuries.
The restaurant accommodates 200 guests indoors and 160 in the beer garden, with direct access from tram stops Thomaskirche, Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz, and Goerdelerring.
Viktor Nestler composed 'The Trumpeter of Säkkingen' and Karl Zöllner wrote 'Wandering is the Müller's Joy' during their stays at this establishment.
