Bäckerei Riegler Altstadt

Riegler Bakery in Heidelberg’s Old Town has stood for fine baking craftsmanship since 1765. The family business preserves traditional recipes and artisanal baking expertise. Among its special breads is the Hannes Urkornbrot, made with spelt, emmer, einkorn and kamut. The 2 kg loaf was developed in the master bakery.

The range also includes the Champagner-Roggen Doppelweck, a rye bread roll perfected. Managing directors Hansjörg and Markus Riegler as well as Jens and Yannis Riegler appeared as guests on the SWR Landesschau Baden-Württemberg on October 31, 2025. The topics included the history of the family business, traditional baking craftsmanship using the Hannes Urkornbrot as an example, and new approaches in the trade. The results of the 2025 bread inspection include ratings of “Very good” and “Good”.
