At the Goethe.Kultur.Lauf, the journey is the destination – a route that not only takes you through Weimar’s historic scenery but also offers eight special cultural breaks to give both body and mind a creative pause. Whether you listen to the sounds of young musicians or experience gripping scenes from Goethe’s Faust – each station offers a cultural surprise.
At Goethe’s Garden House, you can immortalize yourself alongside the poet with a selfie, while the Bee Museum entices visitors with a sweet honey tasting – a nod to Goethe’s deep interest in beekeeping, which he shared with his wife. Live music from the Erfurt-based band Surfsubotnik adds an exotic guitar-driven rhythm to the course, and at the Roman House, you can send personal greetings in true Goethean style. For those feeling creative, Goethe’s Drawing School invites you to pick up a brush and let his artistic spirit inspire you.
These and other cultural interludes make the Goethe.Culture.Run a unique experience—one that moves not just your legs, but all your senses. Take closer look at the cultural breaks.
