Tips

Hiking

In this special building you can experience an ancient craft up close. Glassmakers are still working behind the panes today. The 200-year-old tower of the glassworks is one of the last in Europe and together with the adjacent buildings you will find a small museum village at this point, which is more than worth a visit. You can find information on opening times here: glashuette-gernheim.lwl.org/de.
