There is much more behind the crane
A touching thought that is as global as it is emotional. After all, das Kranich is not located in just any old place, but in a very special castle - Schlaining Castle - first mentioned in a document in 1271 and also known as Friedensburg since the 1980s. And peace as an elementary, global value is held in particularly high regard here. Not only in conferences, seminars and meetings, but also in clear and moving symbols such as "Sadako's cranes".
Sadako's cranes
Sadako was a little girl who lived in Hiroshima in August 1945. She witnessed the American atomic bombing that took many lives and destroyed an entire city. When Sadako fell seriously ill a few years later, she remembered an old Japanese belief: if you fold 1,000 paper cranes, your heart's desire will be granted.
With its name, Restaurant das Kranich carries on the idea of peace and the memory of a great little heroine. It is also something more than just a restaurant where you can enjoy regional delicacies with your loved ones or with partners and colleagues.
Cranes - birds of happiness!
The beauty of cranes has fascinated us humans for centuries. In Greek mythology, the crane was associated with Apollo, Demeter and Hermes. It is a symbol of vigilance and wisdom and is considered a "bird of happiness" - a messenger of spring, so to speak, which stands for warmth, light and food after a long winter. In poetry, the crane stands for the sublime in nature.
In future, we will also express our solidarity with these very special animals by supporting conservation projects for cranes.
