Wernigerode is almost a pilgrimage site for opera fans.
The highlight of the Wernigerode palace festival is an opera which was specially staged for the inner courtyard of the palace. Also, serenade concerts, song evenings and a lively open air cinema programme are held here.
And if you’re ever a guest in the “colourful city in Harz”, you mustn’t miss the state garden show. Unique flower, plant and water worlds, newly designed landscapes as well as a cultural social programme create an unforgettable visit.
