Restaurant Kirchenwirt Leogang since 1326

Hotel restaurant Kirchenwirt Leogang is a lovely and cozy guest house, belonging to the Unterrainer family for over 130 years. Today, Hans-Jörg Unterrainer and his sister Barbara Kottke run the business. In doing so, the siblings received multiple awards, including 4 toques from Gault Millau and 3 forks from Falstaff. The wine list was awarded “One of the best wine lists awarded with two Glases” by Wine Spectator. Rooted in their family tradition, the Kirchenwirt offers you a wonderful holiday experience, all year round. Here, you’ll not only find all the tranquillity you need, but also recreation, nature, culture and, of course, fantastic cuisine by chef Stefan Birnbacher.
