Recreation in the Krupp forest

Idyllically situated in a clearing in the Krupp forest: the restaurant Zur Kluse. Less than two years after a fire destroyed the listed 18th century gem, owner Matthias Knutzen celebrated its reopening in 2011. Since then, the restaurant's own parking lot has regularly been packed. Nevertheless, you can usually find a seat in the two-level dining room or, when the weather is nice, in the tastefully designed beer garden. The patron, a real garden lover, has put a lot of heart and soul into it. It is a wonderful place to relax under old chestnut trees. Cyclists and horse riders have also been taken into consideration. There is a large bicycle parking area next to the beer garden and a pole for tying up horses.

Getting married in the Klusen Chapel

Weddings find a special place to get married in the small Klusen chapel. However, the Kluse is not only the perfect place for celebrations, but also for a short break. Chilled drinks and freshly prepared German cuisine will quickly revive your spirits. Everyday life quickly fades into the background in the middle of nature between the city forest and Bredeney.

Special charm

Where dark wood used to dominate the Kluse's dining room, wood has now been replaced by a few shades lighter. This, the use of new lights and the placement of a few bistro tables opposite the bar make the ambience appear young and contemporary. Changing artists provide variety in the design of the walls. At the same time, the restaurant Zur Kluse near the Baldeneysee has retained its special charm.

The "Wiener Schnitzel". Served with roasted capers, it tastes particularly aromatic.
