Mejor época para visitar
Weekday mornings are quietest, when artisans sit at their benches and happily answer questions between orders. Late afternoon light in spring and autumn flatters the timber facades for photographs.
Consejos para el presupuesto
Entry to the courtyard is free, so money goes straight to the makers. Fresh-baked Lebkuchen and small blown-glass trinkets cost far less than equivalent souvenirs on the streets outside.

Acerca de
Datos rápidos: Unos 15 artesanos en activo ejercen sus oficios a diario dentro de un anillo de casas con entramado de madera reconstruidas con métodos medievales tradicionales. Las demostraciones de artesanía, desde el vidrio soplado a mano hasta la fundición de peltre, se desarrollan a pocos centímetros de los visitantes, que pueden seguir cada paso gratis.
Destacados: Construido a mano con ensamblajes tradicionales de madera y vigas talladas a cincel, el patio existe solo porque sus gremios fundadores insistieron en métodos de trabajo auténticos. El calor del horno aumenta mientras un fundidor de peltre vierte metal fundido a 230 grados Celsius en moldes tallados, y a unos metros un soplador de vidrio da forma a globos incandescentes convirtiéndolos en vasos para beber ante tus propios ojos.
Consejos de expertos
- Peek through open workshop doors and ask a craftsperson a question, since most gladly demonstrate while working. If you want an unobstructed view, opt for late morning on a weekday rather than peak weekend hours.
- Bring cash, because not every stall accepts cards, and buying direct skips souvenir-shop markups. Have small bills ready for quick, low-cost purchases.
- Pewter and glass make fragile souvenirs, so ask about padding or shipping before you wander on. Plan to hand-carry breakable buys.
- School groups thin out by mid-afternoon, so return after 3 pm for an uncrowded wander. Look up to catch the carved corner beams and painted shop signs that most passersby miss.
