Christmas Shift at the Upper Harz Mining Museum

The Oberharzer Mining Museum, in collaboration with the Tourist Information Clausthal-Zellerfeld, invites you to a very special "Christmas Shift" at the museum in Clausthal-Zellerfeld on the first Advent weekend – November 28 and 29: on Saturday and Sunday from 11 AM to 6 PM, visitors can experience the buildings above and below ground as well as mining in a festive atmosphere. The combination of industrial charm and Christmas coziness makes this market an unforgettable experience for the whole family. On the lovingly decorated mining museum grounds, visitors and locals have the opportunity to enjoy mulled wine, punch, Lumumba, sweet treats, and hearty dishes, as well as browse through (artisanal) craft offerings. Surrounded by historical machines and impressive evidence of mining history, the stalls shine in warm light and invite you to linger. Many local artists and stalls will be present, offering the chance to pick up some early Christmas gifts while exploring the facilities above and below ground. One of the highlights, alongside the musical program, will be the guided tours on both days every half hour starting at 11:00 AM through the festively illuminated above and below ground show mine. Here, over 200 Christmas lights provide a whole new perspective on the mining history of the Upper Harz.
