About Harzer Genuss-Tage

The Harzer Genuss-Tage (Harz Days of Enjoyment) at Klosterhotel Wöltingerode gather regional producers, manufactories, and specialty manufacturers from the Harz region and its neighboring areas on a November day. In the historic monastery ensemble north of Goslar, a gourmet market is created, ranging from cheese and sausage to honey and jams, liqueurs, brandies, and baked goods. Tastings, demonstrations, and small workshops make the manufactories visible, while the monastery distillery and monastery kitchen focus on their own specialties. Those seeking a quiet, culinary-focused day in the Harz foothills will find a combination of a gourmet fair, historic setting, and relaxed atmosphere here. The event seamlessly integrates into the monastery hotel's event year, which is already established with events like the 'Wölti unter Dampf' (Wölti Under Steam) courtyard festival and several other seasonal calendars.

Gourmet Fair in the Monastery Ensemble

For centuries, Wöltingerode was a Cistercian nunnery and today it is a hotel, distillery, and event venue. The monastery ensemble north of Goslar offers a quiet, established backdrop particularly suitable for events focused on craftsmanship, enjoyment, and tradition. The Harzer Genuss-Tage leverage this substance, gathering regional providers in the halls and outbuildings of the monastery.

Regional Producers and Manufactories

The focus is on artisans and manufactories from the Harz region and its foothills. Cheese dairies, beekeepers, bakeries, small breweries, distilleries, sausage and preserve manufactories, confectioneries, and producers of jams, syrups, liqueurs, and pralines present their products. Tastings are available at the stands, and many providers offer small demonstrations explaining their production processes.

Monastery Distillery and Monastery Kitchen

The Wöltingerode monastery distillery uses the Genuss-Tage to showcase its liqueurs and brandies. Tasting flights and tours of the distillery complement the market offerings. The monastery kitchen serves warm daily specials and classics of North and Central German cuisine in its restaurant rooms.

One-Day Event

The Harzer Genuss-Tage 2026 will take place on a Saturday in November and is designed as a one-day event. This allows for a compact excursion that can be combined with a visit to Goslar, the Rammelsberg Mine, or the Klosterhotel itself.

Harzer Genuss-Tage — edition 2026

The Harzer Genuss-Tage 2026 will take place on Sunday, November 8, at the Klosterhotel Wöltingerode near Goslar. At the market stalls, regional producers will present cheese, sausage, honey, jam, baked goods, liqueurs, and brandies from the Harz region and its foothills. Tastings, small demonstrations, and highlights focusing on the Wöltingerode monastery distillery will shape the program. The detailed program for 2026 will be published by the organizer in the autumn. The structure will follow the proven cornerstones of previous years, concentrating on a quiet, culinary-focused Sunday in a historic setting.

Gourmet Fair with a Regional Focus

The Genuss-Tage 2026 continue the annual tradition, bringing together small manufactories from the Harz region and its surroundings in one place. Unlike large food fairs, the emphasis is on a personal atmosphere, direct tasting, and conversations with the producers.

Monastery Setting and Tasting Focus

The monastery distillery traditionally uses the Genuss-Tage to introduce new editions and offer tasting flights that explore the house's various liqueur and brandy lines. In parallel, the monastery kitchen serves warm dishes with a regional connection.
