Two traditional inns in Frankfurt am Main and their windows
Being an inn with a deep heritage doesn’t mean you have to have beautiful windows.
The Apfelweinwirtschaft Buchscheer (the name is an old name for pasture) is located in Frankfurt Sachsenhausen near the tram and train station Luisa. It’s a traditional inn where one is not able to order a beer, they only serve Ebbelwoi (the German kind of cider). It has a lovely outside sitting area under large trees and the inside is charmingly old but the window are … well, decidedly plain.
The inn Schmärrnche in Frankfurt Bornheim has a similiar long history to look back on. The windows are not particulary elaborate either but at least they tried with the trompe l’oeil sandstone frames.
