About our hotel

The old merchant’s house

History and stories, trade and change, tradition and modernity:

The old merchant’s house stands in the middle of Kalbe’s old town at its southern end, on the so-called Kalbenser Pottkuchen. In October 2010 the small hotel, with no more than eight rooms in total, was reopened – in one of the oldest commercial buildings in town, with a long trading tradition. Over the centuries it has served, among other things, as an inn, a coaching stop and a grocery store.

Back in the days of the salt monopoly in the Middle Ages and early modern period, there was already a so-called salt depot here. Trade and change are typical of this place. Every era has left its mark and tells of life in its time. A golden crown is even said to be buried here – although it has never been found.
