Sights of Germany: a mini-hotel with a romantic history

Relaxation for two on the beach or a date onThe Eiffel Tower is no longer interested in this. In search of a fresh idea, we recommend going to Germany, where there is a hotel with an unusual and very romantic history. The Ehähaeusl hotel, which translates as “wedding house,” has earned a place in the Guinness Book of Records and in the hearts of many lovers, and its history is truly fabulous. In the 18th century, couples who did not have their own home were forbidden to marry in Bavaria in order to reduce the birth rate among the poor. And then one enterprising merchant from the city of Amberg found a solution for the unhappy lovers, and at the same time a way to make money. A tiny and very narrow house was built between two existing ones - as a result, it has no side walls of its own, only a front, back, and roof. The house was sold for a small price to those who wanted to get married, and after the wedding it was bought back for a slightly smaller amount. Everyone was happy: the young families, the owner of the house, and the Bavarian legislation.

But the city’s residents defended one of their main attractions — the house was rebuilt and turned into a hotel with an area of ​​only 53 square meters, a façade width of 2.5 meters, and a single room for two. It would seem that such a tiny place cannot compete with luxury rooms in famous hotels, but this is not so. The only room in Ehähaeusl is so popular that it is better to book it several months in advance. Many newlyweds from Bavaria and all over the world want to spend their wedding night here, and there are several reasons for this.

The interior of Eh’haeusl is truly luxurious: plaster statues, gilded mirrors, candles, roses, a fireplace, a jacuzzi, a romantic and cozy atmosphere. It is not surprising that the hotel was awarded five stars. In order not to disturb guests unnecessarily and to give them the opportunity to be alone with each other, the hotel has neither a concierge nor a permanently present maid. Only the housekeeper prepares breakfast for guests while they are still sleeping. And there is also a legend in Amberg: if a young couple spends a night at Eh’haeusl, they will live together for many years. The temptation to check the veracity of this legend is certainly great, especially since the cost of living here is relatively low. And can the price of a guaranteed happy marriage be too high?
