What is a History Hotel?
An increasing number of people would like to find out more about the history of the place they visit or stay.

The founder of this hotel was familiar with this problem. This was what he experienced during many trips as a businessman who was also interested in history. He developed this new hotel conception: the History Hotel.

400 years ago this house was used as a residential and administration building of the Abbey of Herford. Paintings of the Herford Abbesses or sculptures illustrate the history of the abbey and the 1200-year-old town of Herford.

Literature about the old Imperial and Hanseatic town of Herford is available at the reception. Please ask for guided city tours.
