'''Postgarten is located in the small town of Herrsching on the east of Ammersee and is part of a hotel and restaurant named ''Gasthof Hotel zur Post'' (not to be mixed up with [[SeePost]] in Schöndorf on the other side of the lake). Gasthof Hotel zur Post is one of the oldest buildings in Herrsching which once served as the local post office.'''

The history of Gasthof Hotel zur Post dates back to 1456, when it was a manor house and residence of the noble Bavarian family Hundtsberger, who opened a restaurant at this location in 1567. Following several ownership changes, a postal station with stables opened in 1889 with theinkeeper as the manager. In 1902 a telegraph system with a morse transmitter was installed. The opening of the train track betweenHerrsching and Munich in 1903 meant the end of the post station. The last postal carriage left in November of the same year. After further ownership changes, the horse stables were removed, and between 1997 and 2000 the now historically listed building was renovated. Today, Gasthof Hotel zur Post offers a small and charming hotel with 17 rooms, restaurant and beer garden. Since May 2012 the new leaseholders Elisabeth Hellmann and Ottmar Walch welcome their guests.

The beer garden has 450 seats in the self-serviced area with a row of ten traditional fixed-to-the-ground tables along a the small streamKienbach. Old chestnut trees provide the necessary shade for the entire beer garden. The serviced area in front of the hotel building is separated from the beer garden by a small road. Major football tournaments are shown live on a large screen.

Besides the traditional The food stall offers cold and warm meals, visitors can enjoy a Steckerlfish such as Wurstsalat (sliced sausage salad), [[Obatzda]] (grilled fish on a sticktraditional cheese creation) fresh from the Ammersee. New at the restaurant are long-forgotten old Bavarian specialties from Grandmother's recipe book, such as G'fülltes Surbraterl mit Schlappkraut or Kalbsnirnbrodn spareribs, burger, bratwurst and as a dessert Topfenkrapferl or Zwetschgenbavesenschaschlik. Confused? Come and try for yourself! The beer served is [[Augustiner]] and a [[Maß]] Hell (lager) straight out of a wooden barrel costs €5.4099 (June 2012).<!A bar in form of a ship sells beside beer also long drinks in the beer garden.  The restaurant kitchen offers both Bavarian and Austrian specialties.
