Gasthof Giegengrün

I was a guest of local people at this restaurant. Going to a place like this is the reason I love to be with local people when I go out to eat. They know the good places, no matter how remote! I had Sauerbraten with Kloese with Semmel and green beans. The quality was excellent. There was nothing in the meat serving except first quality meat (not a trace of fat or gristle . Everything tasted delicious and the portions were large. Apparently this Gasthof has been in business for decades and is well-known by the people in the area, and at certain times it is quite busy. The Erzgebirge is beautiful, and this place is a great find. The Erzgebirge is known for their woodcarvings and the Gasthof Giegegruen is a museum of large carved figurines, some with multiple figures, and ceiling lights. My host knew of my interest, and since we were there in the middle of the afternoon, we made a tour of the entire facility to see the carvings. (My host pointed out that you can see where the wood was laminated in order to get a piece of wood large enough for the figurines. My host said using laminated wood was not characteristic of older Erzgebirge carvings. These are mostly large pieces, however, so I understand why they would use wood glued together before doing the carvings.. The carvings are skillfully done and a treat to see, especially such a large collection. Do plan to visit the upstair, large rooms. The small buildings behind the Gasthof are exhibits of historic rooms, including a bakery and home arts. The animated baker and his son sing and tell about baking. The Disneyland-like technology is rather amazing given the location of the Gasthof. I speak enough German to get by, and you would need some German verbal skill in order to get the most out of the experience. We went back later in the day for ice cream sundaes, another great reason to visit the Gasthof! If visiting the Erzgebirge, which I highly recommend, the Gasthof Giegengruen is a MUST visit!

Es war sehr lecker. Es dauerte eine Weile, bis das Essen kam, aber es war üppig und lecker! Es gibt verschiedene Holzhütten draußen mit lebensgroßen Puppen, die über Handwerker erzählen.
