Event information
Date & time
Between 10 am and 5 pm, master baker Daniel Mücke will be presenting his craft to the public. According to the motto: "Je näjer de Möhl - desto frisker ook dat Mehl" ("The newer the flour - the fresher the flour"), visitors' physical well-being will be catered for.
Fragrant coffee and delicious cakes as well as the popular museum bread are offered by the Mücke bakery from Salzgitter.
The dough for the museum bread is prepared according to an old recipe and baked over beech wood in the chest-fired oven of the historic bakehouse. Watching is welcome!
But you can also take part:
Every first and third Wednesday of the month, groups of children have the chance to knead, shape, and bake the dough themselves! The groups are welcomed by a tour guide and led through the old bakery and the mill garden. Afterward, each child gets to make a small roll from a piece of dough. While the rolls are baking in the oven, anyone who’d like to can tour the castle or the Eiszeitgarten. And of course, the finished pastries are there to be enjoyed.
To schedule guided tours or the children’s baking workshop, call 05341 / 839-4623 or email museumstadt.salzgitterde
