The story
Restaurant „Das Freude“ in Bad Hersfeld is the gourmet German kitchen of the Schlosshotel at Schlossplatz 1, Friedewald. The Schlemmer Atlas awarded it 3,5 Kochlöffel in 2026, and the restaurant is listed as fine dining with world cuisine influences.
Chef Sebastian Treude and his team run the kitchen. Guests choose a four or six course menu, with an optional wine pairing for either format.
The hotel sits directly beside the ruin of the Friedewald water castle, which gives the property its historic character. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible.
