The aroma of fresh bread and sweet pastries is the first thing that greets you at the Konditorei Bauer - closely followed by the warm welcome from the Panorama Café team. While your gaze wanders over the sweeping, charming landscape of the hilly Danube region over a coffee, behind the scenes - in the bakery - a story is being written that combines craftsmanship, regional passion and family dedication. It is Gerhard and Catrin Bauer who make this place more than just a bakery and patisserie. The Panorama Café is all about enjoyment, close ties to the Danube region and dedication to craftsmanship.
 
In 2003, master baker and confectioner Gerhard Bauer took over the traditional business in Pfarrkirchen. Together with his partner Catrin, he is now the fourth generation to run the patisserie. Originally founded by Gerhard's parents in 1970, the business has developed over the decades into a panoramic café with breathtaking views of the Mühlviertel hills and the Danube region. In addition to the traditional bakery, Café Bauer has also made a name for itself as a patisserie - everything from homemade chocolates, light fruit tarts and the classic apple strudel is created here with great attention to detail. A particular speciality of the house is the Pfarrkirchner banana bomb, for which guests return time and time again. Those who come for the fresh baked goods will also find a varied selection: fresh bread every day and a wide range of pastries. Those with a sweet tooth can also look forward to high-quality, homemade ice cream - something Gerhard is proud to talk about. In addition to its day-to-day operations, Café Bauer also relies on its apprenticeship programme as another flagship. With highly motivated apprentices, they proudly contribute to the promotion of young talent in the retail, bakery and patisserie sectors.
 
The Panorama Café is not only known for its delicious baked goods, but also for the breathtaking view it offers its guests. The hilly Mühlviertel region stretches out from the panoramic terrace, gently sloping down to the Danube. Here, the beauty of Upper Austria can be savoured to the full - and with a full stomach. The view is not the only reminder of the region, as the patisserie attaches great importance to regional products such as eggs and organic rye, which are then used to make the popular Mühlviertel organic rye bread, for example.
 
Visitors particularly enjoy baking demonstrations, where they can look over the shoulder of master patissier Gerhard at close quarters. A visit to the café not only brings anticipation of a culinary experience, but is also the perfect opportunity to relax. From the panoramic terrace, you can enjoy the view of Pfarrkirchen and the surrounding area offers a variety of MTB, cycling and hiking tours right on the doorstep: from the Penzenstein-Runde and the Mühlviertler Dom-Runde to the Traumblickrunde or the Schmetterlingswanderweg. Whether for the landscape or the banana bomb, a visit to the panorama café is definitely worthwhile.

These tours also lead directly past the culinary partner:

• Panoramaweg
• Pfarrrwaldweg
• MTB Granit Bier-Runde
• MTG Grande Granit-Runde

Here you can gaze into the distance and discover the beautiful Danube valley, the Sauwald forest opposite and the Mühlviertel. The Mühlviertel adjoins the Donauleitn to the north and conveys a certain tranquillity with its gently shaped ridges and hilltops. Granite and gneiss form the geological subsoil, which appear here and there as striking rock formations and weathered shapes. The acidic and nutrient-poor soils did not make it easy for agriculture, in addition to the harsh, cool and low-precipitation climate of the high altitudes. Typical of the region are hilly cultivated landscapes (Bühel), which contain various copses. In contrast, there are agrarian plateaus with little structure. Today, agriculture is very intensive, with dairy farming as the main sector. In the past, the cultivation of flax and hops as well as linen weaving were important sources of income alongside agriculture. The beer brewing tradition is still alive today.

The devil once had riches and precious treasures. He buried his greatest treasure very close by, in Obermühl on the Teufelskirche. "The Devil's Money Laundering" tells the story of what else he used to do with his treasures.

Drei Landschaften auf einen Blick…
Hier darf der Blick in die Ferne schweifen und entdeckt dabei das wunderschöne Donautal, den Sauwald gegenüber und das Mühlviertel. Das Mühlviertel schließt nördlich an die Donauleitn an und vermittelt mit seinen sanft geformten Rücken und Kuppen eine gewisse Ruhe. Den geologischen Untergrund bilden Granite und Gneise, die da und dort als markante Felsbildungen und Verwitterungsformenhervortreten. Die sauren und nährstoffarmen Böden machten es der Landwirtschaft nicht leicht, dazu kommt das raue, kühle und niederschlagsarme Klima der Hochlagen. Regionstypisch sind hügelige Kulturlandschaften (Bühel), die diverse Feldgehölze enthalten. Demgegenüber stehen strukturarme agrarische Plateaus. Heute wird sehr intensive Landwirtschaft betrieben, mit Milchwirtschaft als Hauptsparte. Früher waren neben der Landwirtschaft der Anbau von Flachs und Hopfen sowie die Leinenweberei wichtige Einkommen. Die Bierbrautradition ist heute nach wie vor lebendig.

Der Teufel hatte einst Reichtümer und kostbare Schätze. Seinen größten Schatz vergrub er ganz in der Nähe, in Obermühl auf der Teufelskirche. "Des Teufels Geldwäscherei" erzählt davon, was er sonst noch mit seinen Schätzen zu tun pflegte.

Scheue Räuber...   
Dieser scheue Geselle ist der Fischotter (Lutra lutra), ein am Wasser lebender Marder. Er wird etwa 130 cm lang, kommt in ganz Europa vor und lebt vor allem dämmerungsaktiv in schwer zugänglichen Uferzonen. Sein Revier kann bis zu 40 km Wasserlauf betragen und ist durch Duftmarken gekennzeichnet. Sogenannte „Ottersteige“ bezeichnen Pfade, die er immer als Ein- und Ausstieg in seine unterirdischen Baue benutzt. Fischotter sind Allesfresser und deshalb wenig wählerisch. Zu den Beutetieren gehören Fische, Insekten, Krebse und Säugetiere. Zum Leidwesen mancher Teichwirte jagt der Fischotter natürlich gerne dort, wo es ihm leicht gemacht wird und hat schon so manchen Fischteich leer geräumt. Häufig wird das durch Einzäunungen oder Ablenkteiche verhindert.

In Niederkappel kam einst eine "Geheimnisvolle Magd" einer armen Bauernfamilie zu Hilfe. Was es mit der fleißigen Frau auf sich hatte und wie sich die Armut doch noch von dem Bauernhof anwendete, erzählt eine spannende Donau-Sage.

Wooded highlands...
Around a quarter to a third of the central Mühlviertel highlands are covered by forest, and forest cover has been steadily increasing for a few centuries. Even today, this trend is continuing due to the abandonment of agricultural utilisation ("farmer death") and has led to an increase in forest cover of 5 to 10 % in the last 20 years. Natural forest types would mainly be beech forests, but spruce is actually the dominant forest tree in the current forest landscape. Exceptions are low-lying areas and steep, semi-natural hillside forests, where deciduous trees are more common. If spruce forests are underutilised for decades, they are more susceptible to severe weather events and consequential damage such as beetle infestation (spruce bark beetle) and the small spruce leaf wasp.

Living in harmony with nature is wonderful and if you appreciate nature and its creatures and do not envy others their good fortune, it will thank you for it. "The helpful cones" tell the story of how a forest elf gave a poor charcoal burner a contented life.

Do you also like a bit of variety in your kitchen? Then you've come to the right place. Depending on the season, we surprise our guests anew every month. Be it with an asparagus or game menu or our salad bar. The Martinsstube is committed to providing the best service.

Chronik    
Die Geschichte Pfarrkirchens ist eng mit der Geschichte der Pfarre verbunden. Diese wurde im 11. Jahrhundert von Passau aus gegründet. Pfarrkirchen wird urkundlich erstmals zwischen 1220 und 1240 erwähnt. Zu Pfarrkirchen gehörte ursprünglich in etwa das Gebiet zwischen Ranna und kleiner Mühl. Von dieser Zeit zeugt heute noch die mächtige und reich ausgestattete Kirche, die untypisch für den kleinen Ort ist. Der erste Kirchenbau dürfte bereits im 13. Jahrhundert an der Schwelle zwischen Romanik und Gotik entstanden sein und ist heute im Kern noch erhalten. Mitte des 15. Jahrhunderts wurde das von Kriegen zerstörte romanische Langhaus gotisch gewölbt und um 1500 die Sakristei sowie die daneben befindliche Kapelle errichtet. Die bestehende bauliche Ausgestaltung und Ausmalung im spätbarokken Stil stammt aus dem 17. und 18. Jahrhundert. Die kunsthistorische Bedeutung der weitum sichtbaren Kirche liegt insbesondere in der Entdeckung der Malereien von Giovanni Carlone, welche im Zuge der umfassenden Kirchenrenovierung 1988 bis 1995 freigelegt  wurden.

Die Gemeinde Pfarrkirchen i.M. befindet sich im südwestlichen Teil des Bezirkes Rohrbach auf dem Höhenrücken des Pfarrwaldes der westlich zur Ranna und östlich zum Daglesbach abfällt. Im Norden reicht das Gemeindegebiet bis an den Ameisberg der mit 941 m die höchste Erhebung in der Region darstellt. Das auch als Naturschutzgebiet ausgewiesene Rannatal mit seinen bekannten Blockströmen bildet die westliche Grenze und schlängelt sich hinunter bis an die Donau.

Manchmal braucht es einiges, damit man sich selbst gut behandelt - und wenn es so lange dauert, bis der Leibhaftige höchstpersönlich vor einem steht. Die Donau-Sage "Hau mich herunter!" erzählt so eine Episode.
