The Old Tollhouse On the bank of the river Rhine next to the Eulengasse, you find the Old Tollhouse, which was built around 1500 AD. Its existence goes back to the sovereignty of the community of nons from Essen over the county of Breisig. The nons were granted the privilege of raising toll for the use of the road. For this reason the tollhouse was built on the banks of the river Rhine, in addition to the tollgates already established (Köln gate – north gate; Koblenz gate – south gate) in the wall surrounding Breisig since 1280 AD. Leaning walls and numerous flood markers on the front of this beautiful timber frame house testify to its great age.

Enjoy cosy evenings in a historical building directly on the beautiful Rhine promenade.
The ambience in The Old Tollhouse is very cosy and unique.
The food is rustic and delicious. Wine tastings are offered by appointment.
