During the Harz Monastic Summer, you can look forward to a wide range of events in the region’s historic monasteries. From June to September, you can experience music, art, and history in a unique atmosphere. Each monastery offers its own programme – from concerts and guided tours to quiet moments of reflection.

Music and Concerts
In the churches and courtyards, you can hear choral music, instrumental concerts, and organ evenings. Many performances make use of the special acoustics of the monastery complexes, blending early music with modern sounds.

Readings and Exhibitions
Authors and artists present their works in places shaped by centuries-old culture. Paintings, installations, and texts open up new perspectives on faith, nature, and history.

Guided Tours and Encounters
During monastery tours, you’ll find out what life behind the thick walls was like in the past and what happens there today. Conversations with members of religious orders or volunteers offer insights into lived spirituality.

Spiritual Offerings
Devotions, pilgrimage days, and times of silence invite you to pause and consciously experience the special atmosphere of the monasteries.
