The story
Just across the border from Basel, in the German village of Inzlingen, Krone offers a modern take on Baden country cooking. The restaurant’s motto, “Badisch bleiben – anders machen,” captures its spirit: staying true to regional traditions while approaching them with fresh eyes.
Head chef Marco Wiedmer-Wagner develops the menu, which focuses on reinterpreted classics that feel honest and unpretentious. The emphasis is on freshness and regionality, with ingredients sourced from nearby farms. Michelin has recognized this straightforward, quality-driven approach with its Recommended distinction for 2026.
The dining room seats between 50 and 100 guests, and the atmosphere is one of traditional hospitality – a place where community and shared meals take center stage. As the restaurant puts it, “Ehrliche Gerichte die jeden an einen Tisch bringen” – honest dishes that bring everyone to the same table. The cooking is light and modern, never overly complicated, letting the quality of the produce speak for itself.
Krone is part of the Wiedmer family’s WIO Group, which has deep roots in the region. The family’s commitment to quality and hospitality is evident in every detail, from the warm service to the carefully sourced ingredients. For those seeking authentic Baden country cooking with a contemporary twist, Krone delivers with quiet confidence.
