The success story of the Viba brand began in 1893 in a small family-run café called "Viebahn" in the center of Schmalkalden. Founded by the Viba family, the company started crafting delicious nougat using traditional recipes and high-quality ingredients.

Over the generations, Viba has evolved into a renowned confectionery brand, known for its commitment to quality and tradition. The company has expanded its product range, established new branches, and finally opened the Viba Nougat World in 2012.

Viba's nougat has become an integral part of Schmalkalden's culinary heritage, contributing to the region's reputation for exceptional sweets and treats. The brand's history of over 125 years has allowed it to perfect the art of nougat making while still surprising consumers with a wide range of other confections.
