1718
In 1718, the master baker Franz Göhringer acquires a building site directly next to the collegiate church in the center of the residential city of Baden-Baden.

The Hotel am Markt looks back on a history of more than 300 years.
The hotel has been family-owned since 1951 and is now run by the second and third generations of the family, Jung, Bogner-Schindler, Baum and Bövers.
In 1718, the master baker Franz Göhringer acquires a building site directly next to the collegiate church in the center of the residential city of Baden-Baden.
Two years later, the "Gasthaus zum grünen Baum" is opened despite massive opposition from church and other influential circles. The liquor license is granted only to the Göringer family.
In the second generation, business developed unfavorably, so that the property was auctioned off in 1763. The Jesuits became the new owners and used the building for ecclesiastical purposes. The inn is no longer operated.
After the nationalization of church property, the house is sold to a master baker. The inn is reopened. In 1819, guest rooms are offered for overnight stays for the first time.
In the following decades, the owner or tenant changed frequently. Towards the end of the 19th century, the "Grüner Baum" was granted permission for a garden restaurant and an additional tavern in the cellar.
After the Second World War, the house is confiscated by the French occupation forces.
In 1951 it is reopened under the new name "Hotel am Markt" by Hilde and Gustav Bogner. The restaurant is visited not only by spa guests but also by locals ( becomes a popular meeting place for spa guests and locals) . The well-managed cuisine ensures that even famous actors and musicians, who have commitments with the Südwestfunk and the theater, visit the restaurant in the heart of the old town. A guest book documents this probably unique time for the hotel-restaurant.
The house, which is over 300 years old, has experienced a lot and could tell us some contemporary events. One of the owners was born in the house, it served several times as a film set and more recently a meeting with Angela Merkel, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton took place on the market square directly in front of our house.
Today the house is run as a hotel garni by the ladies Jung, Bogner-Schindler, Baum and Bövers. A hotel - two pairs of siblings - in the second and third generation - makes four women who are happy to welcome you.
