The story
Krone in Groß-Umstadt, at Rondellstraße 20, runs a classic cuisine kitchen that the Michelin Guide awarded a Bib Gourmand in 2026 for good quality, good value cooking.
Karl-Ludwig Wölfelschneider cooks here himself, in what the family calls its "Küchenwerkstatt". He favours fresh regional products by season and takes cues from French and Mediterranean cooking. The seasonal country cooking appears on two menus, one following the time of year and one built around field and garden produce.
Iris Wölfelschneider-Daab is the house sommelière, and the wine list shows it. Expect a dry Odenwald Riesling or a red Burgundy, and fruit brandies from the family's own harvest. Krone is a family business that also offers hotel rooms and a private room for celebrations.
