Here in Gossendorf, the "Gossendorfer Naturfango" is also mined, a volcanic healing clay that purifies and detoxifies the skin and inhibits inflammation. As a result, the fango is particularly effective against pain in muscles and joints, rheumatism as well as skin impurities and has long been appreciated in the thermal spas in the area.
Every year, the Gossendorf Nativity Trail leads along this route, where more than 50 nativity scenes adorn the path from the 1st Sunday in Advent to the Three King's Day. With a lot of love, nativity stations are created from natural materials by the local residents.
