history

Around 1700 there was a restaurant owned by the shoemaker Nickel Kiefer , which he called Zum Stiefel . In the adjoining building, the GA Bruch brewery was founded by Johann Daniel Bruch as a pub brewery in 1702 . In 1718, the current building was built using older parts as the head office of the Bruch brewery. The three-story solid building has a gable roof and a small inner courtyard.

In 1850 the brewery moved to Fürstenstrasse and around 1900 to a new building on Scheidterstrasse. During the Second World War, a studio of the Reichsrundfunksender was moved to the former brewery, after the war a French officers' casino was set up. In the 1950s to 1960s the erotic cinema City-Kino came to the premises, and at the end of the 1960s the Theater im Stiefel .

The building was restored in the 1970s. In 1989, the brewery was rebuilt as its own Stiefelbräu pub .
