Stiftskeller, Traditional restaurant in Old Town, Innsbruck, Austria.
Stiftskeller sits at Franziskanerplatz and features multiple dining rooms plus the largest beer garden in central Innsbruck with over 800 seats. The different sections spread across various levels and spaces, including a shaded garden area that runs along Stiftgasse.
The building underwent major changes in the 18th century when Empress Maria-Theresa ordered a convent established following Emperor Franz I's death. This period marked a turning point in how the location was used and its purpose.
The restaurant maintains strong ties to Bavarian beer culture through regular shipments from Munich's Augustiner brewery and serves regional Tyrolean dishes. Visitors experience local dining traditions and beverages that have been valued for generations.
The venue works well for weddings, business meetings, and family celebrations with various available rooms and spaces. The feel changes depending on which area you select, from intimate to spacious.
The current structure was renovated by the Edith-Haberland-Wagner Foundation and includes design elements by architect Clemens Holzmeister from the 1930s. These architectural details are typical of that era and give the place a distinctive look.
