Schliesselberger Leather Goods
Lederhaus Schliesselberger on the right-hand side of the old town brings history to life. The processing of leather has been practised in this historic building since the 15th century.
The history of the Schliesselberger family at Lederergasse 5 began in 1820, and today Moritz Schliesselberger is the seventh generation to work in the family's ancestral home. In the shop, the family tradition lives on in many objects: the old cash register is still used for small amounts of money, and the old safe still stands in the office. However, the trade of leather processing has been practised here for much longer – since 1422. The building was also the headquarters of the leather craftsmen's guild. You can still visit their guild hall with its elaborate frescoes and the guild chest with its coat of arms and seal.
Today, the shop offers a wide range of bags, especially luggage. There is also a large selection of shoelaces. One of the team's fortés is customer care, special requests and enquiries. Thus, it is no surprise that some customers have been loyal to the shop for generations.
