Artisans’ Courtyard in Clausthal-Zellerfeld
A visit to the Kunsthandwerkerhof in Clausthal-Zellerfeld is an exciting experience for young and old alike. The buildings, set on rustic cobblestone paving, house a shop selling wool and other items, a brewing academy, a restaurant and a glassworks. The exhibition rooms showcase the wonderful, colourful art of glass design – from small figurines and baubles to large vases. There is also a glass workshop at the Kunsthandwerkerhof. Here, glass beads are hand-wound from Murano glass, and glass rods are made from Lauscha and American silver glass.
This creative process results in intricately crafted pieces of jewellery – truly exceptional, one-of-a-kind gifts. The Kunsthandwerkerhof cultural initiative also offers creative courses where you can design your own jewellery.
The craftspeople and shops look forward to welcoming you from Thursday to Sunday, from 2 pm each day .
Glashütte
The glassworks at the Zellerfeld Arts and Crafts Centre transports visitors into a fascinating world of glass. In the exhibition and retail areas, there are numerous artistically crafted, one-of-a-kind pieces, decorative ideas and gift items to discover.
A particular highlight is the creative workshops: in the newly designed workshop rooms, visitors can get hands-on, learn more about glass as a material and create their own little works of art. This makes a visit to the glassworks a special experience that combines creativity and craftsmanship.

Anyone wishing to experience the ‘art of brewing’ can visit the Brewing Academy, which is also located in the courtyard, and even learn the art of brewing beer for themselves.
