"The Zeughauskeller transformed from an armoury to a place of culinary delights

Dear guest

Welcome to a house with a long history and tradition. The «Zeughauskeller» was built in 1487 – even before Columbus had discovered America. At that time Switzerland was a budding confederation and much smaller than today.

The name «Zeughaus» means that all kinds of weapons and armaments
of war were stored and mended in this house. Unfortunately, the Middle Ages were marked by more war than peace in Switzerland. Legend has it that – apart from other historical weapons – the crossbow*, belonging to Wilhelm Tell, was stored here as well.

In 1867 a new «Zeughaus» was built and all the weapons were transferred there. In the years 1868 and 1925 there were two changes of ownership and the house was then partially used as a residence.

Since 1926 the «Zeughauskeller» has been a peaceful and social meeting point. The weapons are only used as decoration and guests from all over the world are given a warm welcome.

On the menu you will find traditional dishes, based on recipes that have been cherished and refined for centuries. A wide range of hearty meat dishes, special sausages and world famous Swiss specialities, such as «Zürcher Geschnetzeltes» (panfried sliced veal with mushrooms in a delicious creamy white wine sauce, served with Rösti) or «Kalbsleberli» (panfried calf’s liver, served with Rösti).

Your host, Tony Hammer, the second out of a longstanding host dynasty, together with a motivated team of 80 employees, ensures your well-being day to day with passion and enthusiasm.

*An authentic replica of Tell’s crossbow has been displayed in our restaurant since 2006, in the same place where the legendary weapon was originally stored, according to the inventory list of 1644. The crossbow was used in the old confederation until the beginning of the 16th century and was the most important and effective weapon for long distances. It is still used as a symbol for Swiss quality and tradition. " - https://www.zeughauskeller.ch/en/home
