    YORMA'S

    Grab a quick coffee and a pastry to keep you warm. Yorma's is open early, so you can fuel up before the cold morning air hits.

    Denkmal-Dampflokomotive 98 507

    Walk over to the Denkmal-Dampflokomotive 98 507. Position yourself facing west, where the sun will rise over the historic engine. The early light catches the metal and the story of the railway line.

    La Trattoria

    Head to La Trattoria for a proper breakfast or early lunch. The restaurant opens at 11:30 on Mondays and Wednesdays, or 17:30 on other days, so check the specific day you are visiting. If it is a weekday morning, you may need to adjust this step or choose a different spot that is open earlier, such as Yorma's for a later second stop.

Local tip

The sunrise is early. Check the opening hours of La Trattoria carefully as they vary by day. If you are there on a Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday, they do not open for lunch until 17:30. For a morning plan on those days, stick to Yorma's or find another early-opening cafe.
