High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Auerbachs Keller (Auerbach's Cellar in English) is the best known and second oldest restaurant in Leipzig. It was described in Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's play Faust I, as the first place Mephistopheles takes Faust on their travels. Auerbach's Cellar is located below the Madlerpassage, a shopping arcade, at Grimmaische Strasse 2 in Leipzig's historical district near the market. It has four historical dining rooms; the Fasskeller (Barrel Cellar), Lutherzimmer (Luther Room), Goethezimmer (Goethe Room), Alt-Leipzig (Old Leipzig), and since 1913 the Grosser Keller (Large Cellar). There is also the Mephisto Bar on the floor above available for drinks. The restaurant owes much of its fame to Goethe, who frequented Auerbach's Cellar as a student and called it his favorite wine bar. According to legend, the alchemist Dr. Johann Georg Faust once rode a wine barrel from the cellar to the street at Auerbach's Cellar, something he could have accomplished only with the help of the Devil. This legend is most likely what led Goethe to add the scene in Auerbach's Cellar to his play Faust I.
