Located in the center of picturesque medieval Rothenburg overlooking the Tauber Valley, the Hotel Eisenhut consists of four patrician houses from the 12th and 16th centuries, furnished with select antiques and original artwork. The homes were united into the Hotel Eisenhut in 1876 as a guesthouse for visitors to Rothenburg's vineyards and wineries. Today, the hotel is considered one of the world's great hotels and continues to be run by Hans J. Pirner, great-grand-son of the founder Georg Andreas Eisenhut.
