Herbs can help cure many things, particularly at Ballenberg Open-Air Museum! Anyone interested in natural medicines and therapies should be sure not to miss our medicinal herb days, when health and well-being specialists make natural products before your very eyes and then sell them. At the Craftsman’s House from Herzogenbuchsee BE (381) with the Ballenberg Pharmacists’ Shop, Ballenberg pharmacists offer free guided tours through the herb and scented garden all weekend long. Admire the large selection of medicinal plant seedlings, which are available to purchase. You can also pay a visit to the spice and dyers’ garden or the exhibition in the Craftsman’s House from Herzogenbuchsee BE (381).

A varied programme awaits you on both days:

• From 10 am to 4 pm, guided tours of the herb and scented garden take place every 30 minutes
• From noon to 4pm, you can enjoy a fairytale journey into the world of herbs and plants every 30 minutes. Listen to exciting, funny and magical fairy tales about herbs and plants.
• From 11 am to 4 pm, young and old alike can make colourful seed balls using seeds from the herb and scented garden together with Susanne Wacker – to take away, plant and experience the joy of new growth.
