Innerberger Stadel, Heritage building in Steyr, Austria
The Innerberger Stadel is a Renaissance building at Grünmarkt featuring elaborate sgraffito decorations and a double-headed eagle coat of arms on its facade. The structure spans multiple levels with ornate exterior walls and now functions as a museum.
The building was erected between 1612 and 1613, initially serving as a provision store. In 1628, the Innerberger trade guild acquired it to operate their iron commerce business.
The building houses the city museum and displays local craft traditions along with the famous Steyrer Krippe collection, carved figures made in this region for generations. The exhibits show how important these handmade skills have been to the city's identity.
The museum is open during midday and afternoon hours on several weekdays, though you should check specific hours as they vary seasonally. The rooms are accessed by stairs, so visitors need to be able to climb steps.
The iron spout juts from the channel between the two gabled roofs, above the band reading "INNBERGER STADEL". The building was saved from demolition after 1908, when the city planned a post office on the site and Franz Ferdinand intervened for its preservation; the post went to the Dornhaus instead.
