Schliesselberger Belt Makers
The history of Schliesselberger belt makers spans some 200 years, from the former tannery to today's specialist workshop for leather processing. The small shop at Dreifaltigkeitsgasse 4 is a stylish setting for this.
At Schliesselberger belt makers, the family tradition of leather processing dates back to 1820. From tannery to production, everything was in the family's hands for decades. The father of today's owner Wolfgang Schliesselberger had finally started making traditional bags and belts on the premises of the traditional Salzburg business. Incidentally, its rooms once belonged to the sacristy of the former St. Andrä church.
From the small shop on the ground floor with a selection of bags and belts, you reach the workshop via a winding marble staircase. The smell of leather is irresistible here; it is the owner's realm with the actual sales rooms and workshop. The craftsmanship is a great fit for the old rooms with plank floors; some historic small pieces of furniture and tools show the tradition in the house. Since the beginning of the 1990s, they have specialised in making belts. They still work with the 200-year-old guillotine shears and 400 types of leather in all colours leave plenty of room for individual requests.
