In 1767 the baroque theater, ballroom and...
The “Roman Emperor” inn was built. The inn sign,
the figure of an emperor, perhaps represents Francis I,
the husband of Empress Maria Theresa, who lived from 1747 to
Roman-German Emperor in 1765.

The innkeepers and hotel owners competed very early on for the favor of the guests by coming up with original names for their establishments. The name "Zum Römischen Kaiser" is quite impressive.
