Mecklenburg Glass Workshop
Thuringian glass art on the banks of the Müritz The glass workshop at the Waren (Müritz) town harbor is well worth a visit.
The idea of the "Thüringer Kristallhof" from Stadtroda / OT Gernewitz to provide an insight into the art of glass blowing, cutting and engraving as part of a sales exhibition has been successfully realized. Watching the artists at work as they create artistic glass items or trying their hand at glass blowing and engraving are popular experiences. The range on offer is extensive, from everyday glass to high-quality lead crystal. The best-selling souvenir and souvenir is the Müritz devil, created by the art glassblower Reinhardt Steger from Neuhaus / Rwg. who can effortlessly perform funny dances. This "Cartesian dancing devil" was discovered around 1640 by Renatus Carterius. The sales exhibition is particularly busy in the run-up to Christmas and Easter. This is when visitors from near and far are interested in the Christmas tree baubles and delicate spring decorations on offer. The establishment of the glass workshop is also linked to the idea of commemorating the glass-making tradition of the 18th and 19th centuries in the Müritz region. Today we know that there were 21 glassworks around the Müritz, which made the charming ruby glass famous. Place names such as Glashütte near Malchow point to the past. Opening hours March-October daily from 10:00 to 18:00
