An eventful Sunday in the garden with a packed programme for the whole family: from scavenger hunts and wild herb workshops to Kamishibai storytelling theatre.
Young and old alike can look forward to a varied Sunday centred around the theme of ‘Garden’. In addition to a large handicraft workshop and plant corner, a scavenger hunt awaits the entire family and a Kamishibai storytelling theatre for the youngest visitors . During the workshop with the wild herb walk, you will discover which edible herbs grow around and near the castle and bring home a home-made culinary souvenir. The short themed tour takes you back to the Baroque period to Franz Fidel Landtwing and his love of cartography and French savoir-vivre. As a culinary highlight you can look forward to homemade, sweet and juicy cinnamon buns (while stocks last)!
The events are in German only.
