Piwnica Świdnicka (Schweidnitzer Keller in German, Świdnica Cellar) is a Polish restaurant- chain company with in fact only one restaurant.[1] The chain- company is considered to be the third oldest Polish company, dating back to its establishment in 1273[2] (during Piast- ruled Kingdom of Poland). The company's only restaurant is the second-oldest restaurant in Europe.[3] It is located in the basement of the Old Town Hall in Wrocław, Poland. Upon its foundation, the chain as well as its restaurant went on to be active for another 744 years, all the way until its dissolution.[4]

The name comes from the nearby city of Świdnica, from which beer was delivered to the restaurant in the Middle Ages.[3] Świdnica was a renowned brewing centre, and its beer was served in restaurants called "Świdnica Cellars", which existed in large cities such as Kraków (Piwnica Świdnicka w Krakowie), Toruń, and Wrocław, the last of which still operates to this day.
