The former country-style restaurant Zur Post in Wacken, built in 1919, has been the hub of the village and the surrounding communities for decades.
It was here that bartenders Thomas Jensen and Holger Hübner conceived the idea for today's Wacken Open Air.
Today, it is used to accommodate staff and to serve other business purposes.
A series of events called "Zum Wackinger" sees artists from music, comedy, and entertainment perform regularly.
Since 2016, a two-day medieval feast with jugglers and bards takes place here.
