More than 130 workshops, museums, and local associations invite you in. Discover guided tours, interactive experiences, charming markets, and traditional cuisine.
In more than 130 workshops, museums, and associations across the Erzgebirge, craftsmanship takes center stage. This is a rare opportunity to peek behind the scenes and immerse yourself in centuries-old skills – often hidden, seldom seen, yet always authentic and accessible. Along the way, you'll meet people who share their craft with heart and dedication.
What makes this weekend truly special are the personal, genuine encounters: hands-on activities often invite you to get creative yourself and try out various traditional techniques. And with a range of regional culinary delights, there's plenty to enjoy for the palate, too.
