Follow the process of our gingerbread from beginning to end.
Stroll through the glass visitor walkway and watch our gingerbread bakers at work from there.
The new erLebzelterei presents traditional craftsmanship in a modern design.
On more than 3,500 square meters of exhibition space, the age-old art of gingerbread baking is showcased, from mixing and rolling the honey dough to filling, covering, and decorating.
The glass visitor walkway
150m from the basilica towards the cable car awaits every Mariazell visitor a new attraction, the large gingerbread demonstration bakery. A visit is possible daily except Sunday and public holidays without prior registration and showcases the artisanal gingerbread production in all production steps. Creative gingerbread bakers decorate colorful gingerbread hearts, embellish them with flowers or company logos, and create true works of art with icing.
Be involved from A to Z
From cracking the eggs to assembling the varieties in the packaging, you observe every step of the production. You follow the creation of Pirkers' delicacies at workstations, depending on the type of gingerbread produced. Supported by state-of-the-art technology, more than 60 different gingerbread varieties are crafted "live" behind glass. An experience for the whole family.
