Upper Harz Autumn Festival

at the Zellerfeld Arts and Crafts Centre

On 11 October 2026, the Kunsthandwerkerhof in Zellerfeldwill once againbe a colourful sight: the shops, together with the Clausthal-Zellerfeld Tourist Information Centre, are inviting the whole family to the Autumn Festival! The artisans will be opening their shops and studios, inviting visitors to browse from 11 am to 5 pm – and, of course, guests can also watch them at work and be captivated by their craftsmanship!

As well as live music, including interactive activities, young and old explorers alike can look forward to an autumn-themed craft trail in the farmyard , featuring activities such as painting resin stones and making leaf hedgehogs, a bouncy castle, an autumn quiz and much more.
