Farmers' Market and Family Festival at the Historic Scheunenhof
The Scheunenhof-Fest Sundhausen is one of the most charming village and farmers' festivals in the southern Harz foothills. The venue is the historic Scheunenhof in Sundhausen, a small village near Nordhausen — a traditional farm complex that has shaped the village's agriculture for generations. The festival combines the character of a farmers' market with family entertainment, making the historic farm accessible to the public once a year.
Program — Regional Products and Families
The farmers' market features direct marketers from the Nordhausen district — cheese, sausage, bread, fruit, honey, herbs, liqueurs, plants. Demonstrations of old agricultural machinery (scything, starting a historic tractor, old harvesting equipment) are a recurring program item. For families, there is pony riding, a children's carousel, craft activities, and encounters with farm animals (sheep, goats, chickens).

Südharz — Gateway to the Harz
The Südharz region, with its karst landscape (Karst caves Kelle and Heimkehle), the Walkenried monastery ruins, the nearby city of Nordhausen, and the ascent to the Brocken, offers a special mix of nature, history, and rural culture.
