Schindl - a German word meaning a thin slat of wood, which was widely used in Austria, Switzerland, and Germany to cover roofs and walls.
A landmark of the Tyrolean capital Innsbruck is a roof covered with copper gilded tiles also called schidl.
And the confectionery, located near the famous Golden Roof (Golden Dachl) and operating since 1803, produces Schindl chocolates. The most "Innsbruck" edible treat.
In the Munding confectionery you can enjoy coffee, which is prepared by one of the oldest industrial coffee machines still in operation, the FAEMA E61. And you can see the world's oldest patented automatic device for preparing dough. And during the Advent period, the facade of the confectionery turns into a calendar.
Johann Nepomuk Munding was born in 1785 in Iberlingen on Lake Constance. Upon arriving in Innsbruck, he got a job in the pastry shop of the city chef Kircher. Being hardworking and ambitious, Johann Nepomuk soon rented the business, and later even bought the entire property.
Johann Nepomuk Munding in 1860 placed the first Innsbruck Christmas tree in the window of his pastry shop - artistically and festively decorated. At the time, it caused a sensation: the Christmas tree was perceived as a pagan symbol and regarded as a provocation.
