Magasin de Parapluies Kirchtag
The Kirchtag family has successfully preserved the masterful craftsmanship of the umbrella maker to this day, manufacturing in the heart of Getreidegasse stylish individual pieces for protection against sun and rain for over 100 years.
The “Alois Kirchtag Parasol & Umbrella Shop” – as it was described in the advertising announcement – was opened in the heart of the Getreidegasse in 1903. This traditional business switched locations within Salzburg’s most famous street from No. 50 to No. 45, before finally finding a permanent home at No. 22 Getreidegasse, where the workshop and shop remain to this day.
The main products in the company’s portfolio are top quality handmade umbrellas. One exclusive product is the limited edition (200) Porsche Design umbrella. The demand for one-offs is also satisfied with pleasure with brollies made to match a particular tie, or featuring golden bonnet embroidery or wedding umbrellas. The product portfolio ranges from a great selection of garden umbrellas and sun shades – for private households and for restaurant gardens – leather goods, cases, bags and gloves, to walking sticks used either as walking aids or as dapper accessories to elegant outfits.
