The Milchpilz is a mushroom-shaped milk and coffee kiosk on Kornmarktplatz in central Bregenz, built in 1953 and still operating in its original location. It is a well-known piece of mid-century design in Vorarlberg and a working cafe as much as a landmark. Kornmarktplatz is a short walk from the Bregenz lakefront and train station. No booking required.

Milchpilz
The Milchpilz on Bregenz's Kornmarktplatz is a mushroom-shaped milk kiosk built in 1953, one of the more photographed pieces of mid-century design in Vorarlberg. It was built as a public dairy stand and has been dispensing coffee, milk, and snacks from the same spot for over 70 years, a piece of postwar optimism that outlasted the era that produced it.
