HANS AND ROSWITHA KRAMER - THE SOUL OF THE DANUBE REGION: THE KIRCHENWIRT IN KROPFING AS A SIGN OF THE INNVIERTLER GASTFREUNDSCHAFT

Sometimes an inn is much more - a piece of home, a multitude of stories or a reflection of centuries-old values. The Gasthof Kirchenwirt in Kopfing is just such a place. Characterised by deep roots in the region and the tireless commitment of the Kramer family, the Kirchenwirt combines the past with the vision of a sustainable future. Hans and Roswitha Kramer, the proud owners of the Kirchenwirt, maintain a tradition dating back over 125 years, with roots that can be traced back to 1125. They don't just cook here, they preserve, create and share with passion. Every glance across the terrace tells of the love for the Danube region and the desire to give their guests a place of warmth and community.
 
When Roswitha joined the family 35 years ago, the inn was at a turning point. Faced with the decision to give up the historic building or revitalise it, Hans and Roswitha opted for the latter. Over time, the building was modernised and turned into a welcoming place that retains its traditional, charming past. In the midst of tradition and a sense of community, Johanna Kramer is already actively taking centre stage as the new generation. The harmonious transition from one generation to the next emphasises the spirit of the house. The inn stands for down-to-earth, regional cuisine and fresh ingredients. The menu features game specialities from the restaurant's own hunting grounds, freshly caught fish and seasonal dishes with produce from local farms. Traditional Innviertler dishes, such as the popular Innviertler dumplings, are also offered and prepared with love. Those with a sweet tooth will also get their money's worth: homemade pastries and the popular farm ice cream from the Kern family business round off the menu. Collaboration with regional partners has always been a priority for the Kramer family.
 
The Kirchenwirt Kopfing is surrounded by the history of the village: the terrace of the Kirchenwirt gives guests an indescribable view of the local parish church, the walls of the inn are adorned with carefully selected hunting trophies and artefacts and modern elements complete the overall picture. Despite the new accents, the old charm of the inn remains palpable, a tribute to its rich history and the decision to preserve tradition and heritage.
 
The proximity to the Tree Top Trail in Kopfing allows guests to combine their visit to the inn with an excursion into nature. If you are travelling by e-bike on the Pram-Sauwald-Tour, the Sauwald-Panorama-Runde or on a hike along the Bründlweg 40, you are not far from the Kirchenwirt. The inn offers its guests an authentic experience of Innviertler hospitality and cuisine. The cosy dining room with tiled stove invites cyclists and hikers to enjoy regional specialities in a traditional ambience.
