However, after local protest, the coffee pot was restored on a post farther from the street.The pot was relocated in 1959 when then Interstate 40 (now US 421/"Salem Parkway") went through the shop's location and again when Old Salem Road was created in the 1960s and the roads were reconfigured.

Now the oldest continually operating bakery in North Carolina, it was established in 1799 by the Moravian Church, and is named for Christian Winkler, a Swiss-born baker, who began working there in 1807, after replacing original baker Thomas Butner Jr. The building, which now has a landmark designation, was constructed by Salem's master builder and mason Johann Gottlob Krause, shortly before his death. Its first story is built of uncut stone; the upper levels, of hand-made brick.Winkler and his third wife, Elizabeth, lived in the building with their six children. Their descendants subsequently lived in the property, including Winkler's grandson, Charles, and his wife, Alice, who ran the bakery in the late 19th century. They added a front porch and second-floor balcony. Bessie and Robert Spaugh, Alice's daughter and son-in-law, took over in 1913. They operated it until 1926, when it was sold outwith the family.During the 1930s and 1940s, the property was a tea room and a coffee house, while the upper floors became apartments.
