Wood can be worked in different ways, and the Erzgebirge folk art of carving is one of them. A carving holiday to Annaberg-Buchholz during the Advent season is a great way to get to know this traditional craft. Under expert guidance, participants learn all the important steps, from selecting the wood and working with carving knives and chisels to designing the details. Individual wishes are also catered for. The carving holiday is suitable for anyone interested in carving, with or without previous experience, and at the end participants can not only proudly present their self-carved work of art, but also a certificate.
