The Landgasthof Adler history and tradition

The Landgasthof Adler looks back on a long and proud history dating back to the 18th century. Originally built as a post station and hostel for travelers, the inn has undergone many changes over the centuries. The historic architecture and cozy ambience reflect the history and charm of times gone by, while modern amenities ensure a comfortable stay. The inn has always been committed to regional tradition and cuisine. Fresh, local ingredients and traditional recipes are at the heart of the menu. From hearty Swabian roast onion to homemade Maultaschen – culinary classics are prepared here with love and care.

The origins of the Landgasthof Adler date back to 1886, when the Müller family acquired the property and began to run an inn. At that time, it was common for rural inns to serve as meeting places for the village community, where residents would gather after a hard day’s work to exchange news and dine together. Over the decades, the inn was constantly expanded and modernized. The country inn flourished particularly in the 1950s and 1960s, when increasing prosperity in Germany meant that more people from the cities traveled to the countryside to spend their leisure time there. The “Adler” became a popular excursion destination, not only for locals but also for visitors from further afield.

The Bauer family: guardians of tradition

For many decades, the Landasthof Adler was run by the Bauer family. The Bauers were known for their warm hospitality and their ability to harmonize tradition and innovation. Under their management, the inn developed into a popular meeting place for locals and visitors alike. The Bauer family knew how to create an atmosphere that made guests feel at home. For many years, Josef Bauer’s kitchen was awarded the highest accolades in the culinary arts. A Michelin star for 27 years and 18 points in the Gault Milau guide testify to the consistently high quality of the cuisine under Josef Bauer’s direction. Of course, the perfect and extremely charming service of his wife Marie Luise Bauer is unforgotten and has contributed significantly to the warm style of the house.

Their deep attachment to the region and to tradition is reflected in every aspect of the inn. They were not only hosts, but also guardians of the cultural identity of Rosenberg-Ellwangen. The Landgasthof zum Adler in Rosenberg-Ellwangen is more than just a place where you can eat and drink well. It is a living piece of history and an essential part of the community. With its rich heritage and continuous adaptation to the needs of guests, the “Adler” remains a symbol of the region’s traditional hospitality and cultural diversity.
