Gasthof & Hotel

Behringer Franconian Wellbeing!

Ambience in the Heart of Volkach The cosy Behringer estate has been used in various ways for the past 450 years. Once the sawing and hammering echoed from the half-timbered walls, later the smoke from the blacksmith’s fire filled the rooms. About 150 years ago the building was used by craftsmen in the dyer trade and around 1900 a notary’s office moved into the historic building.

Almost a Century of Gastronomic Tradition Hospitality has a great tradition in our house. A bit over 90 years ago the historic building became the home of the ‘Gasthof zur Mainbruecke’ (Main bridge restaurant) and was acquired by the Behringer family in 1928. Nikolaus Behringer bought the estate from the ‘Duell brewery’, whose beer we still serve today.

”Watch out that the whole thing doesn‘t collapse“ Arthur Behringer, former senior of the family died suddenly in 1985 at the age of 54 and left the Hotel – by now in a bad state of repair – to his young successors. The officials made a complete renovation a condition for the renewal of the Hotel and Restaurant business concession. When the building was completely renovated in 1987/88 from the roof to the cellars the talk of the town knew mainly one theme: “Watch out that the whole thing doesn‘t collapse” - this was when the builders removed almost the whole core of the building leaving only the outer walls intact. The danger of complete collapse could be averted and we made the maintenance and preservation of the historic buildings Hotel Behringer and Hinterhoefle our lifelong task – the lively gastronomy has helped a great deal. Today you will find passionate gastronomy in a cosy ambience.

Authenticity, Competence and Hospitality – Our Team‘s Maxims. As our guest we want you to feel comfortable and notice these three maxims that guide our team. These and other guidelines that we developed jointly with our team form the basis for successful cooperation. Openness and trust open up room for our team members and make for a congenial working atmosphere. Please share your wishes and helpful suggestions with us. We are glad to help you cordially and competently. The cosy atmosphere in our hotel as well as the Hinterhoefle (historic backyard) constructed in 1621 developed over the centuries. Your visit helps us at maintaining these historic buildings, a task that we fulfil year after year with passion and love for detail. Thanks a lot for your visit – we hope that you have yourself some convivial hours at our hotel and restaurant and take home lots of unforgettable and pleasant memories. We hope to see you again.

Top wines from Franconia

Grosses Gewächs ( Grand Cru) is the highest award for wines from producers who are member of the VDP – (German association of distinct wine makers). Just a few metres up the road is the ‘Weingut zur Schwane’ where we purchase some of our Grand Crus. This traditional wine growing estate knows to combine 600 year old knowledge with the newest techniques and thus produces outstanding wines, which are more than worthy to represent the appellation ‘Escherndorfer Lump’. For Rainer Müller wine is supposed to mirror nature itself and is an integral part of our culture. To meet these high standards and expectations one needs many years of experience and discipline. But the effort is worth it: His wines enjoy great international popularity. Horst Sauer is one of the most notable German wine producers and has enjoyed many great successes at international wine challenges e.g. the title ‘German Wine Producer of the Year 2010’. His wine growing estate is nestled between the vineyards and the river Main in Escherndorf – a little village below one of the best appellations in Franconia: The Escherdorfer Lump.

Grape specialities

This and that

Verjus is an acidic juice made from unripe grapes. Nevertheless it is not a vinegar. Its acidity is milder than that of vinegar and its aroma is more sophisticated than that of lemon juice. We like to use it for cooking – it perfects our dressing and gravy and gives them an acidy and fruity taste.
