Countless events invite young and old to explore the treasure chamber of the Brothers Grimm. Large-scale festivals, groovy musicals, and exciting fairytale days take you directly into the realm of fairy tales, sagas and legends.
And there are also many places along the route that entice you to celebrate and relax in a fairytale atmosphere year after year: from Easter to Christmas, from the International Easter Egg Market at the Fürstenberg Porcelain Manufactory and the Fairytale Week in Bad Sooden-Allendorf, to fairytale summer festivals in Gudensberg and Niedenstein, to the atmospheric Advent and Christmas markets in Buxtehude, Fritzlar, Heiligenstadt spa, Holzminden, and almost every town along the way.
