Zum Roten Ochsen
Since 1703 - probably the best-known student tavern in Heidelberg. Mark Twain, Bismarck and countless generations of fraternity students have eaten here.
The Roter Ochsen on the Hauptstrasse is THE classic Heidelberg student tavern. Over 300 years of tavern history, with a weekly piano evening of student and folk songs. Fraternity mementos line the walls. A classic menu with roast pork, sauerbraten and big steins of beer.
