The Eats of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Germany

Rothenburg ob der Tauber may be one of Germany’s most famous and touristy towns, but that doesn’t mean the food isn’t worth talking about. In this video, I break down the traditional foods and drinks you should try when visiting Rothenburg, with a focus on Franconian cuisine. We talk about classic dishes like Schäufele (slow-roasted pork shoulder), Sauerbraten, hearty meat-and-gravy meals, and the kinds of comfort food that make sense in a medieval walled town. I also cover Franconian wines, which surprise a lot of visitors, and local beers like Kellerbier, a must-try for beer lovers visiting the region. Of course, Rothenburg is also famous for its Christmas stores and markets, and I explain what food experiences are genuinely worth your time—and which ones are more about atmosphere than quality. When a town gets millions of visitors a year, knowing what to order (and where expectations should be realistic) makes a big difference. If you’re visiting Rothenburg ob der Tauber and want to eat better, smarter, and more authentically—this video will help. Filmed in Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Germany Wolters World for Food!
