Horsmar revives old tradition: village pub is supposed to bloom again!

In the small town of Horsmar in the Unstrut-Hainich district, the revival of a closed village pub is imminent. A new club would like to put the 130 -year -old inn back into operation in the community. The foundation of the association is planned for Friday, and 60 volunteers have already expressed interest in membership.

The initiative is supported by all six clubs in the place, which shows the common motivation for revitalizing social life in Horsmar. The inn should be open to the bar twice a week in the future. The planned uses of the premises also include rehearsals, club work and events. However, a major obstacle is the monthly additional cost burden of around 2,000 euros, which must be minimized in order to maintain operation.

Current situation in Horsmar

The building is in poor condition, it is urgently needed to renovate and has inadequate insulation. The place itself has no restaurant since the 1990s, which makes the importance of reopening the inn. A comparison with the neighboring village Eigenrode shows that a similar club has had positive experiences in the field of community education.

According to a comprehensive research on the village of Horsmar, the place currently has 574 inhabitants and is part of the municipality of Unstruttal based in Ammern. Geographically, Horsmar is located between Dingelstädt in the northwest and Mühlhausen in the east. The district extends to the Mühlhausen Landgraben in the west and north. Historically, the place had been affiliated to Prussia since 1802 and later part of various administrative structures before it formed its own community association in 1995.

Local facilities such as a daycare center and several active clubs prove the social commitment within the community. The current mayor is Kay Göthling. The place is connected to the B 247 in terms of traffic, but has no rail connection, which also designs the situation for the planned pub.
