The property: Historic timber framing meets modern new construction
The Hotel-Gasthof Neue Post is located at Mühlweg 1 in the center of Leutershausen, directly opposite the Gustav Weißkopf monument at the lower gate of the historic town wall. The establishment consists of two buildings: the historic half-timbered building (bluish facade, traditional Franconian architecture) and a separate, newly built guesthouse with spacious, modern rooms.
The inn has been family-run for generations. While classified as a 2-star hotel, it significantly surpasses this standard in terms of amenities and guest satisfaction. The building's structure and furnishings are also of high quality, with no deferred maintenance and ready for immediate occupancy.
The location:
Leutershausen (first documented in 1000) is a town with 5,689 inhabitants, covering 84 km² in the Frankenhöhe Nature Park on the upper reaches of the Altmühl River. Its historic townscape, with half-timbered houses, town walls, and gate towers, defines its character. For a small town, its transport connections are remarkably good: the A6 motorway (Heilbronn–Nuremberg) can be reached via the Aurach or Herrieden interchanges in 8–12 km. Leutershausen-Wiedersbach train station is located on the main Nuremberg–Crailsheim line ( Germany Navigator ) with regional train connections to Ansbach (approx. 10 min.) and Nuremberg (approx. 45–60 min.). Distances: Ansbach 10–12 km, Rothenburg ob der Tauber 20 km, Nuremberg 65 km.
Leutershausen is situated at the crossroads of four important tourist regions: Romantic Franconia, the Franconian Heights Nature Park, the Franconian Lake District, Romantic Franconia (25–40 km), and the Altmühl Valley. The Romantic Road runs 20 km west of Romantic Franconia , passing through Rothenburg, one of Germany's most visited cities. Other nearby destinations include Dinkelsbühl, Bad Windsheim with its Romantic Franconia Open -Air Museum and thermal baths (25 km), the Gasthof Neue Post (7 km), Colmberg Castle ( Tourinfra ), and Lake Altmühl (25 km). In Leutershausen itself, the Gustav Weißkopf Museum, the Local History and Crafts Museum, the historic old town, and the free Altmühlbad (one of Bavaria's last remaining river baths) attract visitors. Leutershausen has a total of four accommodations with approximately 110 beds; the Gasthof Neue Post is by far the most prominent of these.
