Hotel Zur Post, a brief history

The 19th-century coaching inn...

A restaurant with stables in the outbuildings existed at the postal hotel of St. Vith back in the mid 19th century. The hotel was destroyed in 1944 but was reconstructed after the war, reopening in 1950.

... becomes a gourmet restaurant

It is where Arno and Ingrid Pankert established their gourmet restaurant in the 1970s and gained an international reputation. The restaurant has been officially recognized by a Michelin star since 1976 without interruption. Today, the hotel has been completely refurbished and is now managed by the third generation, Carina and Eric Pankert.
