German states debate who invented Bratwurst sausages

Historians in Erfurt, Thuringia, claim to have found a 1269 document mentioning an early Bratwurst stand, sparking a debate with Bavaria over the origins of the famous sausage. The Wurstkuchl in Regensburg, previously touted as the world's oldest Bratwurst stand, now faces competition from this earlier discovery. Despite the controversy, the Wurstkuchl remains a popular destination known for its traditional sausage-making methods and quality products, drawing visitors for its authentic flavors and historical charm.
