Brewery
Food & Drink
Brewery founded in 1791, with a multimedia show & tour about beer-making plus a guest house & shop.
Slide 1 of 8
Must be the finest beer facility in the entire state of BW. An absolute gem and masterpiece of a campus with pristine buildings, an awesome hotel, a store packed full of great swag, and a huge patio with plenty of seating and top notch food options along with all of their beers on draft. On a sunny, warm day, I can't imagine a better place to be. Super scenic property with an equally scenic drive to the brewery. I can imagine the tour is incredible. This place is even more incredible when you realize that it's state-owned.
Historical place. Clean neat and tidy. There are two restaurants and two play areas for kids at this brewery. Gift shop is pretty awesome too. Delicious food in the main restaurant friendly and fast service. Gets busy over the weekend so better to go in a bit early if you are aiming for lunch. You can get different types of beer and one of its kind rothaus whiskey.
I've been to this brewery twice and have enjoyed my visit both times. Maybe sometime I'll take the tour. But tour aside, there's lots to experience and the surroundings are just so very pleasant and peaceful. Maybe with bus loads of tourists it would be less so but fortunately there were few during my visits. Everything is just so clean and perfectly maintained, showing you that a state-owned brewery is clearly a money maker! The restaurant is very nice, as well as the new Schnellimbiss toward the back of the huge "essplatz". Lots of outdoor seating. The gift shop is interesting (a bit pricey) and the small museum toward the back of the big building to the right of the restaurant is very interesting, regardless of your German comprehension. You can of course sample the beers within the gift shop/bar area (not sure of the cost of that). A very pleasant drive (on a nice day - it would be a nightmare in rain or snow) to the Rothaus complex. I'll go back!
Very beautiful place, need to book your tour in advance, most of them are in German, this time the guide did not spake any English... The place is very clean impressive, advanced. They care about the environment. You get 1 presel and one beer ( in comparison with different places is a bit disappointed.
Looks like a great place to hang out and drink some beer in the sun. There is also a guided tour to the brewery, but you have to pre-order. There is a shop with friendly staff, and if you enter the museum and buy the voice guided tour (5€) you will get one free 🍺.
Thank you for the tour and the souvenirs!
Who likes beer, like to get a special beer - no Marktcheck TV documentation with Rothaus Brauerei - and taste a bit of perfect freshly brewed beers is at Rothaus Brauerei as it best.
Restaurant with traditional german menu. Besides a museum and the Rothaus shop beer tasting tours are offered

Heritage museum
Museums
Slide 1 of 8
Classical historical Hause , it showcases the everyday life of local people around 1850 to 1950 and gives the feeling of the beautiful old age. Friendly lady at the reception and small entrance fee (3 Euro for adults, 2.50 Euro with local hotel overnight stay „Kurkarte“).
Amazing place with atmosphare.
Nice little museum but very few explanations. Really just a place where you can see how people lived around 100 years ago.
The route is very easy for walking but not suitable for baby carriage. Make sure to get here on sunny days and not rainy days or else the path would be very muddy.
A real, historic Black Forest home that can be seen for a fair price. Turn the clock back to mid/late 1800's...the last owner actually continued to live here until the 1960s.
Worth to see the typical house of this region from all Times. With the local Hochschwarzwald card we had a free entrance
Wonderful place, dr Brinkmann's house
Very nice place for visiting with kids

Park
Nature & Parks
Slide 1 of 8
An absolutely beautiful park with lots of great wooden figures and a breathtaking natural backdrop... Totally worth seeing for everyone, young and old, as a family outing or for nature lovers. Also ideal for strollers and also pleasant to walk. An ideal and beautiful circular walk!
Highly recommended for childrens, the wooden statues adds to their fun experience and hiking trail in the forest to lake is is beautiful. There is a small kiosk near the lake but it was closed.
Absolutely beautiful hike with kids - maybe a bit too long for very little ones, but great with a stroller as well. Took a break by the lake about 2/3 down the track, soooo beautiful!!
Was very sceptical about this park, but we actually had a very nice day, park was completely free. Sculptures were overall in good condition, there is also an activity course. Overall a well maintained park with nice picknick spots and stuff to do for the kids. Great pub and brewery nearby. Recommended with young children for an easy day out.
Located around a lovely small lake, it is such a nice and fun park, provided it is not cramped with visitors. There are funny wooden sculptures all over the park. One can enjoy a relaxed hour walking, have a small picnic if the weather is good and grab a beer at the Rothaus brewery located 300 meters from the park.
A nice walk with some tree sculptures, but not too interesting. If it's sunny/hot, you can bring swimming gear for swimming in the lake.
The entrance is from the main road at the pointing squearel sign. Follow his pointing for 2km to see the lovely sculptures. It's an easy walk, but not for a baby's stroller.
Cool place with all kinds of fun nooks and crannies. We stayed at the hotel, but im not sure that was necessary for a great experience. Worth checking out for food, beer, park, and shop.

Lake
Sights & Landmarks
Slide 1 of 8
This is a fantastic place to hangout with kids and family. You can park the vehicle at the tourist information centre and walk up about 1.4km to the lake through the woods and wood carvings. Once you reach this beautiful lake you can relax in the sun and help yourself for a coffee cake or food at the restaurant there. Perfect!
A piece of heaven
(Translated by Google) Unfortunately, it was not possible to go around the lake by bicycle, there are not paths everywhere and the terrain is mountainous.... but very beautiful landscapes. (Original) К сожалению, не получилось обьехать озеро на велосипеде, не везде дорожки и гористая местность.... но очень красивые пейзажи.
(Translated by Google) A very beautiful lake. It's easy to walk around and doesn't take too long. However, it can get very crowded on weekends. For the anglers out there, you can also purchase a day pass. (Original) Ein sehr schöner See. Man kann gut drumherum laufen und ist nicht zu lange unterwegs. Am Wochenende kann es allerdings sehr voll werden. Für die Angler da draußen, man kann auch eine Tageskarte kaufen.
(Translated by Google) Very nice little swimming lake, kiosk nearby with delicious things, free parking and in the shade, barbecue area in the home of the parking lot, unfortunately you can't stay overnight. (Original) Sehr schöner kleiner badesee kiosk in der nähe mit leckeren Sachen Parkplatz kostenlos und im Schatten,grillplatz in der Heimat des Parkplatzes, leider kann man nicht übernachten.
(Translated by Google) A gem in the middle of the nature reserve near Grafenhausen: the Schlüchtsee. The natural swimming lake is wonderfully located about a 30-minute walk from Grafenhausen. The water lilies in the demarcated and protected rear part of the lake are a botanical special feature. It is advisable to visit the lake at off-peak times. There is a kiosk with a terrace and changing rooms at the lake. (Original) Ein Bijou mitten im Naturschutzgebiet bei Grafenhausen: der Schlüchtsee. Wunderbar liegt der Naturbadesee ca. 30 Gehminuten von Grafenhausen entfernt Eine botanische Besonderheit stellen die Seerosen im abgegrenzten und unter Naturschutz stehenden hinteren Teil des Sees. Es empfiehlt sich den See zu Randzeiten aufzusuchen. Am See gibt es einen Kiosk mit Terrasse und Umkleidekabinen.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful small lake located on the outskirts of Grafenhausen. Ideal for swimming, there is also a kiosk where you can buy food and drinks. There are enough parking spaces near the kiosk. 🙂👍 (Original) Schöner kleiner See gelegen am Ortsrand von Grafenhausen. Ideal zum Schwimmen, Kiosk ist auch vorhanden wo man Verpflegung und Getränke kaufen kann. Parkplätze gibt es genügend in der Nähe vom Kiosk. 🙂👍
(Translated by Google) Especially when the weather isn't obviously inviting for swimming (see photo), the lake is particularly beautiful. If the water temperature allows it, which it usually is, you can swim here in peace. Access to the lake is also very pleasant, even for those with sensitive feet, via a wooden changing room on the shore, which is accessible via a staircase. The location, shape, and size of the lake are truly fantastic! (Original) Gerade wenn das Wetter nicht offensichtlich zum Baden einlädt (siehe Photo), ist es am See besonders schön. Sollte die Wassertemperatur es zulassen, was für gewöhnlich der Fall sein dürfte, kann man hier in Ruhe schwimmen. Der Zugang zum See ist zudem über die am Ufer stehende Holzumkleide auch für "empfindliche Fußsohlen" über eine Treppe sehr angenehm. Die Lage, die Form, die Größe des Sees sind wirklich TOP!

Museum
Children's Museums
Slide 1 of 8
Very nice place to be for the kids.
The museum is nice and exhibits over 3 floors. The kids tried all of the activities and enjoyed it well. The catch is that all the models are described in Dutch although you can get an English notebook fwith expositions for them.
Disappointing and Not Worth the Time Honestly, I have no idea how this place got so many good reviews. We were hoping for a fascinating experience that would engage all the senses, but what we got was a short, boring trail with unclear stations and poor maintenance. The kids got bored after 10 minutes, and some of the installations didn’t even work. The explanations were minimal—some only in German—and nothing really gave a sense of “senses” like the name suggests. Even the scenery wasn’t impressive. On top of that, we paid full price—and there’s absolutely no justification for it. Not recommended, especially if you’re traveling with children and looking for something fun or stimulating.
Was very boring. Finished it very quickly. Wouldn't have paid money for it. I like the part where you could physically display how you spend your average day and the barefoot walk. Generally very philosophical exhibition about time. Maybe good for old people? Everything was in German. There was a diaper chaging area in the female loo. There's also a nursing room. Disinfectant dispenser at the entrance was empty.
We didn’t plan to get here, but it was a rainy day and I am so happy we came with the kids. Free entrance with the red card. There are 3 floors, we got a book in English which explained every floor attractions. We were 1 hour there, the kids just loved it. It is less for adults, but a must on a rainy day with small children (our eldest is 10 years old)
Cute little museum especially for kids from 6 years old who understand German.
Well thought out, a lot of interesting experiments for kids and adults alike, lots of fun. The special exhibition about how come we seem to always have less and less time though we’re supposed to save so much time with tech was really insightful. Recommend!
Overall nice experience. Just the nature sounds on the first floor are way too loud for childrens ears.

Shopping
Slide 1 of 8
Super-friendly artist, and great work. Much creativity here - a feast for the eye. Prices are very reasonable, too.
(Translated by Google) Simply absolutely impressive work, these people know their craft. My utmost respect for how beautiful and delicate the masks and all other works of art are, handcrafted down to the last detail. We are totally thrilled. (Original) Einfach absolut beeindruckende Arbeiten, diese Menschen verstehen ihr Handwerk. Meinen vollsten Respekt, wie wunderschön und filigran, die bis ins Detail Handgefertigten Masken und alle anderen Kunstwerke angefertigt werden. Wir sind total begeistert.
(Translated by Google) If you don't find anything here..... Quality clothing, decorations, angels, wood carvings for indoors and outdoors... (Original) Wer hier nichts findet..... Qualitätskleidung,Deko,Engel,Holzschnitzereien für drinnen und draußen.....
(Translated by Google) You can immediately tell from the charming sculptor's studio that there is more on offer here than just a local souvenir shop. AND the studio is open! The artist couple is available for discussions and provides a completely open insight into their daily work. Black Forest romance and religious kitsch meet elements of pop culture and modern art. An exciting dialogue emerges between regional tradition and global contemporary influences. Pretty much everything is covered here, from classic souvenirs and carnival masks to Christian iconographic objects and their experimental siblings such as steampunk grimaces and stylized angels to completely liberated artistic exhibits - with impeccable craftsmanship! (Original) Man merkt dem charmanten Bildhaueratelier sofort an, dass hier mehr geboten ist, als ein Souvenirshop ortsansässiger Tradition. UND das Atelier steht offen! Das Künstlerpaar steht für Gespräche bereit und liefert einen total offenen Einblick in ihr Tagwerk. Schwarzwald Romantik und religiöser Kitsch treffen auf Elemente von Popkultur und moderner Kunst. Es entsteht ein spannender Dialog zwischen regionaler Tradition und globalen zeitgenössischen Einflüssen. So ist hier von klassischen Souvenirs und Fasnachtsmasken über christlich ikonographische Objekte und deren experimentelle Geschwister wie Steampunk Fratzen und stilisierte Engel bis hin zu völlig befreiten künstlerischen Exponaten so ziemlich alles abgedeckt - in handwerklicher Tadellosigkeit!
(Translated by Google) I can't get past your shop... 7 T-shirts, 2 hoodies, 1 baby shower, small nativity scene, etc. All the employees are super nice. I'm thrilled. Next a shingle picture...over and over again (Original) Ich komme an Ihrem Laden nicht vorbei....7 T-Shirts, 2 Hoodies, 1 Schorsch, kleinkrippe, etc. Alle Mitarbeiterinnen super nett. Ich bin begeistert. Nächstes ein Schindelbild....immer wieder
(Translated by Google) Always interesting. Time is taken, the children can look at the masks, you can watch the carving, great atmosphere. The shop offers good quality at a fair price. (Original) Immer wieder interessant. Es wird sich Zeit genommen die Kinder können die Masken anschauen, man kann beim schnitzen zusehen, tolle Atmosphäre. Der Shop bietet gute Qualität zu einem fairen Preis.
(Translated by Google) We discovered the shop by chance and were surprised by the great selection and beautiful pieces. There are also clothing and Black Forest garden gnomes. Very nice artist and owner. (Original) Wir haben das Geschäft zufällig entdeckt und waren überrascht vom tollen Angebot und den schönen Stücken. Es gibt auch Bekleidung und Schwarzwald - Gartenzwerge. Sehr nette Künstlerin und Inhaberin.
(Translated by Google) Very nice little shop with beautiful carvings. There are also many beautiful things in the lower price range. Likewise the various Blackest Forest shirts and everything that goes with them. We were given very friendly and helpful advice by a young woman. It certainly wasn't the last time we were there. Also highly recommended for holidaymakers. (Original) Sehr schöner kleiner Laden mit wunderschönen Schnitzereien. Es gibt auch viele schöne Dinge in der unteren Preisklasse. Ebenso die verschiedenen Blackest-Forest Shirt`s und alles was dazu gehört. Wir wurden von einer jungen Frau sehr freundlich und hilfbereit beraten .Sicher waren wir nicht das letzte Mal dort . Auch für Urlauber sehr zu empfehlen.
