Dogs in the restaurant Klosterschänke
We appreciate our many guests who visit Eberbach Monastery with their dogs. At the same time, we want to ensure that all visitors have a pleasant stay.
As there have been isolated incidents of disturbance in the past, we decide on a case-by-case basis whether a dog can be brought into the Klosterschänke – depending on the situation, occupancy, and consideration for other guests.
Just talk to us – together we will find a good solution.
