Discover Local Herbs and Bind Traditional Herbal Bouquets
On August 14, 2027, the herb walk around the cultural castle Theuern invites you to a special discovery experience in the Upper Palatinate. The focus is on local herbs, their traditional meanings, and the traditional binding of herbal bouquets in the context of the Assumption of Mary.
In the Footsteps of an Ancient Herb Culture
In ancient cultures, herbs were regarded as remedies, spices, and fragrances. Due to their special effects, they were often associated with protection, health, and magical concepts. The event combines this traditional knowledge with a vivid exploration of the city and landscape around Theuern.
