Craving a taste of history with your meal? Right here we stand before Restaurant zur Dorfaue, a place brimming with stories dating back to 1840. The building first belonged to Regierungsrat Friderici.
Picture this: it’s the late 19th century. Schankwirt Hermann Krause acquires the property around 1890. He expands it six years later. Then in 1905, Gastwirt Albert Schulze takes over. Locals nicknamed him “Padden-Schulze” because his restaurant sat by the village pond filled with “Padden” or frogs.
Albert ran the establishment until his death in 1944. His widow continued until 1962. The Dorfaue remained in the family. However, it was leased out.
Fast forward to December 19, 1993. Tomislav Burazin and Ivan Klemic transformed the Dorfaue into a Croatian restaurant. Tomas ran the restaurant alone beginning June 1, 2004. His wife Jasna Burazin took over on May 29, 2008.
