Museums

Conditorei Museum

The confectionery museum is located in the Poganietz House on the market square, a Renaissance half-timbered house dating back to 1556. The "sweet art" has been practised here since 1722 - initially as a gingerbread and honey bakery, later as a confectionery and pastry shop. The business existed without interruption with changing owners until 1937 and is closely linked to the Schmitt-Poganietz family.

Today, the building is home to the Rösner bakery. On the first floor, an elegant Viennese-style café with around 60 seats invites you to linger. Next to it is a small, private collection that provides an insight into the traditional craft of pastry chefs and confectioners. Wooden models, sulphur moulds and intricate sugar decorations bear witness to great creativity and craftsmanship.
