Beschreibung
The high school of viticulture was cultivated in Eberbach at all times. The handling of wine, which reached as far as Cologne, formed a decisive basis for the economic prosperity of the Cistercian abbey.
In addition, the brewing of beer played a subordinate role. However, a brewery dating from the Baroque period has been preserved in Eberbach. Those accustomed to the technical appearance of today's breweries will be surprised by the artistic quality of the architecture of this building.
Cross-vaulted ceilings rest on four solid central pillars, suggesting the abbot's reception room rather than a commercial establishment. This traditional design bears witness to the high value the Cistercians placed on manual labor.
Information for your event planning
Following its extensive renovation, the Old Brewery House can be used for lectures, conferences and presentations. The former band house in front (part of the cooperage) serves as a spacious reception and checkroom. With its stylishly simple atmosphere, the room is suitable for up to 80 people. It can be used in a variety of ways with different seating arrangements.
In the context of large events in the layman's dormitory, the band house presents the organizer already in the entrance area and forms there an independent reception unit.
