Rehearsal and conference venue
Rehearsals
The tradition of music in Michaelstein goes back to 1968.
The monastery is located outside the town – ideal conditions for musicians.
During rehearsal breaks: just a few steps and you are surrounded by the wonderful Harz countryside.
The abbey offers a wide range of activities which complement the rehearsals stage perfectly:
- Candle-lit evening tour of the cloisters
- Drum circle – non-verbal team-building
- Meditative tours in the historic cloister walkways
