Dear friends of fairytales and the Brothers Grimm!

Greetings, dear visitors!
Together with more than sixty cities and towns, a dozen partner hotels, theme parks, museums and countless other fairytale destinations, we welcome you to the German Fairy Tale Route!
Our website presents our unique itinerary in its almost indescribable diversity. Let us invite you to browse, read and dream. To dream of fairy tale musicals and castle hotels, of mythical paths and medieval castle banquets, of journeys in the footsteps of the Brothers Grimm into the world of fairy tales, sagas and legends. - Soon, when we have passed through the hard test of the Corona pandemic together, your dreams can also come true.
We are looking forward to meeting you!
