Built in 1576 atop the cellar walls of a 14th-century structure, it stands just west of the Market Church in the heart of the Altstadt. Named after Cord Broyhan, a 16th-century brewer who introduced the famous Broyhan beer, the building has long served both residential and commercial purposes. Its façade, updated in 1830, reflects later stylistic changes, but the timber-framed core remains a testament to Hanover’s medieval craftsmanship. Today, Broyhan House hosts a traditional German restaurant offering regional specialties in a historic setting. The building’s preservation amid modern surroundings highlights Hanover’s commitment to architectural heritage and cultural memory. It remains a popular destination for visitors seeking authentic local cuisine and a glimpse into the city’s layered past.
