Eibenhof – Eventlocation & Kulturstätte
Alte Eichen 33

The Eibenhof, a historic estate on the shores of Scharmützelsee serves as a cultural center with a variety of events. The extensive grounds extend over a peninsula and include an event barn, a riding arena and boat moorings, and its idyllic atmosphere contributes significantly to the special flair of the festival.
The history of the Eibenhof dates back to the 15th century. After the Second World War, the cultural association of the GDR took over the estate, which served as a recreation and conference venue for cultural workers. Between 2005 and 2008, the Eibenhof was renovated under new ownership in line with its listed status and turned into a versatile event venue.
