basic information

the history

The Heinz Wurst tent, a classic Oktoberfest institution since 1906, was established by Joseph Heinz and continues as a much-loved family tradition. In its fifth generation now under Petra Brenner, Alexander Brenner, and Herbert Heilmaier, it still provides a friendly, welcoming environment combined with fine Bavarian cuisine. Renowned for its deep-seated heritage and warm atmosphere echoing that of Munich’s St. Paul’s Church—the tent is a place not to be missed by those who desire true Oktoberfest hospitality.

Beer 

Heinz Wurst und Hühnerbraterei pairs its robust cuisine with the famous Paulaner Oktoberfest beer, a clean, malt-forward brew that ideal for savoury foods. Apart from beer, the tent provides soft drinks, wines, and non-alcoholic alternatives to guarantee a comprehensive dining experience for every visitor.
