Story

The history of our house and the Prüser family

Prüser's Inn looks back on over a century of history. The story of a house and the Prüser family. When the royal district administrator Heidmann of Rotenburg in Hanover granted Johann Dietrich Prüser, a farmer from the Pflugkötner region, permission to run a restaurant and pub in 1890, this marked the beginning of genuine hospitality with the goal of subordinating everything to the well-being of the guest. His son, grandson, and great-grandson continued this tradition, renovating and expanding the house and adapting it to modern requirements without compromising its character. Thus, a progressive business emerged with the comfort of traditional hospitality, where the guest is king.
