Altfränkische Weinstube Rothenburg

Info

Traditional German Hotel And Restaurant

Geschichte

Romantic medieval atmosphere, great food and drink at reasonable prices, and a very friendly inn keeper make the Altfränkische Weinstube restaurant a favorite of locals and tourists alike. If there is space at the Stammtisch (Regular's table) you can challenge one of the locals to a game of chess (the set is stored in the table's drawer). Of course, on any evening you may like a romantic table near the open fireplace.

WEDNESDAY - ECC
ENGLISH CONVERSATION CLUB
Rothenburg ob der Tauber

Have fun every Wednesday, be friendly, speak english, meet friends...

You are welcome to join us every Wednesday evening at 8 pm in the Altfränkische Weinstube, Klosterhof 7, near the Imperial City Museum.

The history of the club

The ECC was founded by Mr. Dieter R. Balb, Rothenburg, 1984. It was just the idea to bring english-speaking people from the world together, no matter what color or religion they are and to improve the English language. Everyone is welcome in the club. We do not only talk about freedom in the world, we practise it in our small world and we agree in our intention to live as good neighbours with all people.

The first meeting took place on Wednesday, April 11, 1984 in the Altfränkische Weinstube. Special guest was Mr. Gordon Grant, a business man from New Zealand. He started us off with a presentation of how he perceives people in different parts of the world. Since 1984 we had meetings with about 5000 guests.

In the local paper, Fränkischer Anzeiger, June 20, 1906 we found an advertisement of a local Englischer Club and its meeting in the Gasthaus Felsenkeller; as far as we know, an English-Club existed over 100 years ago. In November 17, 1993, we celebrated our 500th meeting.
