Kräutertag at the Maize Maze

August 21, 2011 By Graham Tappenden Leave a Comment

The Maislabyrinth – a maze made out of maize – will be holding a Kräutertag (herb day) on Sunday, 28th August 2011.

On this day, a Kräuterhex, literally a “herb witch”, will be there and one of the highlights of the day will be a traditional Frankfurt green sauce.

The maze itself from 11am until dusk. Entry costs €2.50 for adults, €2 for children aged 10 to 16 and €1.50 for children aged 4 to 9.

To get there by car, travel to the edge of Weißkirchen on the road to Steinbach. There is a track off the road near the yellow “Oberursel Stadtteil Weißkirchen” sign leading towards Frankfurt (ie. left if you have just driving through Weißkirchen, right if you are coming from Steinbach). The maze is about 200m along this track.

If you are coming by train, the nearest station “Weißkirchen-Steinbach” is on the S5 line between Frankfurt and Bad Homburg.
