110 Years of Parkhotel Quellenhof Aachen

The Quellenhof in Aachen opened on June 8, 1916. For more than a century, this park hotel, located next to the Kurpark, has been a defining feature of the city and is one of its most famous historic hotels. 

Have you heard the story that racehorses used to be given Evian water? Or the tale of falcons flying through the halls? Do you recall state visits by figures like Kissinger, Churchill, Merkel, or Macron? Or Princess Hayat’s legendary ice bar, which took days—even weeks—to melt completely?

We want to honor all these stories—the major ones and the casual ones, the documented ones and those that have simply been passed down—when, on June 27, 2026, we say:

We’re celebrating 110 years of Quellenhof. Will you join us?

This anniversary not only symbolizes the living tradition and long history of the Parkhotel Quellenhof Aachen, but also its commitment to social responsibility and sustainability.

As part of our 110th anniversary celebrations, we are making a conscious effort to support social causes: A portion of the proceeds from the gala dinner will be donated to the KinderHerz Foundation, helping to fund vital medical projects for seriously ill children and their families.



This special event in Aachen uniquely combines exclusive indulgence, a historic anniversary, and a spirit of solidarity.

An exceptional 4-course menu, created by various chefs, will guide you through the evening with culinary delights, combining classic elegance with modern culinary art.

Every course reflects the highest standards of culinary craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. Whether meat, fish, or vegetarian/vegan —a diverse selection of the highest caliber awaits you, leaving nothing to be desired.



The focus is on a culinary experience that combines indulgence, creativity, and the special atmosphere of this anniversary evening.

If you’d like to wind down the evening in peace, you can stay overnight at the Parkhotel Quellenhof Aachen.

Our rooms provide the perfect setting to reflect on the memories of this special anniversary—and to conclude the hotel’s 110th birthday celebration right where it all began:
