What a lovely spot!

We really enjoyed our time in the Harz. This was partly due to the very nice apartment, with everything we needed. On the balcony, you can sit comfortably and enjoy the beautiful view. One small downside is the shower cabin; it's quite cramped to get into.

This year, our family of three was allowed to spend the Pentecost weekend in the Harz Mountains in this fantastic vacation apartment. It was super cozy, located in a great area. We didn't miss anything!! It is worth mentioning the nice and straightforward contact with the landlord as well as the great service!

Despite rain and storm, it was a really great week. The proximity to the thermal spa is fantastic, the equipment of the apartment excellent for our needs... we didn't miss anything.
We have stayed in other apartments in Glockenberg before, but none like this one!!!
Many thanks to Mr. Kohnagel for that.

Which sights are there in Altenau?

Vacation Where the Pepper Grows


The quaint town of Altenau is located in the Upper Harz, about 15 kilometers from Goslar. In this climatic health resort, numerous traditional Harz buildings still stand. The town area spreads across five valleys, where the mountain streams Kleine Oker, Große Oker, Gerlachsbach, and Altenau converge to form the Oker. Altenau is an attractive destination all year round, so it's no surprise that there are many private houses and cozy apartments available for vacationers. A notable attraction is the world's largest herb park in Altenau, which spans over 30,000 m². The herb park is an oasis for nature lovers, botanists, gourmets, and of course, herb enthusiasts. Tasting, touching, and smelling are explicitly allowed here. The local heritage museum focuses on depicting and illustrating the history of Altenau. In this lovingly furnished museum, you will encounter numerous tools related to mining, which shaped life in the region. This way, you learn all about the popular holiday destination and gain insight into the lifestyle of the former population. Current opening hours can be found on the website.

A visit to the largest German forest national park, the Harz National Park, is a must. Covering an area of about 25,000 hectares, the park accounts for approximately ten percent of the total area of the Harz. Over 7,200 plant and animal species call the nature park home. Nestled in the breathtaking mountain landscape, the 1,141-meter-high Brocken stands tall. The legendary mountain is characterized by rocks, mountain ranges, dense deciduous and coniferous forests, mountain streams, and moors. Start a biking, discovery, or hiking tour through the national park and experience the wilderness in all its facets. If the weather in the Upper Harz is not cooperating, you can relax and unwind in the Kristall Saunatherme "Heißer Brocken". The spa offers a brine indoor and year-round outdoor pool, steam tunnels, sulfur healing water pool with a large waterfall, indoor and outdoor saunas, and much more. Hourly rates can be found here. The opening hours are (as of November 2023):

• Mo-Thu, Sun: 9 AM – 9 PM
• Fri & Sat: 9 AM – 10 PM

Also worth seeing is the Schnitzstube and Drechslerei Meier. In this artisanal master workshop with over 200 years of Ore Mountain tradition, you'll find a unique exhibition under the theme "Wonders in Wood." The historic silver mine and realistically designed landscapes with mechanically moving figures and carvings will captivate you.


art & culture

What is a must-see in Altenau?

Culture and Traditions in Altenau


In Lower Saxony, numerous historical places and many churches await you. In the museums, you can delve into the history of the Harz. Whether it's a natural spectacle, a house of worship, brewing art, or mining, a comfortably furnished vacation apartment or a centrally located affordable holiday home is the perfect place to explore the exciting history of the Harz. The National Park Visitor Center TorfHaus offers a fantastic view into the Radau Valley and to the Brocken. At this location, which is emblematic of the former division of Germany, you get exciting insights into the national park. The visitor center is a popular starting point for hiking and adventure tours, such as the famous Goethe Trail to the Brocken, the Moorstieg over the Great Torfhaus Moor, or the "On the Move with Boris Bark Beetle" adventure tour.

During a vacation in a cozy apartment or a holiday home, you should not miss a visit to the UNESCO World Heritage Site Upper Harz Water Management. The water management system, established over 800 years ago by Cistercian monks, utilized water power for mining and is a testament to the impressive mining history in the Harz. The Altenau Brewery is the last remaining brewery in the Upper Harz. For 400 years, it has stood for a successful brewing tradition. During a brewery tour for groups of 10 to 20 people, you will learn everything about the history of beer brewing in Altenau, the raw materials, primary fermentation, storage, maturation, filtration, and bottling. A total of four different beer types are brewed according to the Reinheitsgebot. In addition to these beers, the "Oberharzer Brunnen" mineral water and three types of lemonades are also produced. At the Canary Museum in Sankt Andreasberg, you can learn everything about the Harz Roller. The so-called Harz bird is a canary that was formerly bred by miners as a side income.


food & beverages

Where can I eat out in Altenau?

Food and Drink in the Harz


If you are spending your vacation in an apartment or holiday home in Altenau, you should definitely try the specialties from the kitchen and kettle. The Harzer Schmorwurst, for example, is made from chopped pork, caraway, and bacon. It is first boiled and then smoked. Alongside the fattier Bregenwurst, the Schmorwurst is a classic accompaniment to Braunkohl. Braunkohl is another name for kale, which is served with belly meat and fried or boiled potatoes.

The Harz is a traditional beer region, producing over two million hectoliters of beer each year. A popular drink for over 1000 years and a nice souvenir is the Schierker Feuerstein. This herbal half-bitter is a famous spirit, whose place of production, a Schierker pharmacy, can still be visited today. If you don't want to cook in your apartment or holiday home, let yourself be pampered with culinary delights from the region in one of Altenau's restaurants.
