Hats Made in Tegernsee — Headwear Maker Gottfried Schätz is run by his Daughter   

Handmade traditional hats are worn today for many occasions. The hat is part of the traditional costume and is therefore an expression of identity, for example in traditional folklore groups.

Handmade traditional hats are worn today for many occasions. The hat is part of the traditional costume and is therefore an expression of identity, for example in traditional folklore groups. Viewed individually, it is what makes traditional costume a complete outfit.

“A hat doesn’t go on your head alone.” Doris GollĂ©-Leidreiter, daughter of the late hatmaker Gottfried Schätz, is not only a virtuoso at making hats, but also at advising customers on what they need. In contrast to shoes, the hat sits above the face and thus makes an enormous impression on others. So it is a blessing to have Doris GollĂ© or her daughter Marietta opposite in conversation.

Whether loden, velour or straw is used also depends on the use of the hat. If it is really to be used as an everyday hat, loden is recommended, while velour with a matt sheen is somewhat finer. The main thing is to wear the hat: hat newcomers only get used to it by wearing it permanently. Doris GollĂ© will explain this to you – in the small hat store with attached workshop in RosenstraĂźe in Tegernsee.

The Revival of Sourdough — Sparking new Thoughts on Agriculture

Every sourdough – that culture of lactic acid bacteria and yeast in a mixture of flour and water – is unique, like a fingerprint, because in every region there are individual bacteria in the air that give each loaf its very own flavour. One person who knows more about the infinite variety of sourdough cultures than most – whose culture is culture, so to speak – is the Belgian Karl De Smedt, keeper and archivist of Europe’s only sourdough library.
