Witches' water Söll

The story of the witches was not conjured out of a hat, but the legend of the Söll witches of Juffing and Saukogl dates back to the 16th century - in other words, it is as old as the hills.

For many years now, the friendly, wise witches have been bringing old legends, customs, myths and traditional knowledge back to life. But unfortunately, there has never been a real witch's house on the mountain like the ladies from the Söll legend. "In the fall of 2019, an old farmhouse, just like the farmhouse of the Juffinger and Saukogl witches, moved into the Hexenwasser. The beautiful old house is a living witness to the craftsmanship and living culture of previous generations and has housed the witches' kitchen, witches' parlor, making room and sewing room since 2020.
The path through the witch's door into the forest of wishing stones, springs, ferns and mushrooms to the large witch's barn door is also a mystical adventure.

Visit the witches at HeXpeditions

In the witchery, I can meet the witch water witches and work, cook and, of course, witch with them. While exploring the witchery from the inside, they show me their rooms, chambers and workshops.
I bring the time with me, and the witch introduces me to her arts on a very private HeXpedition. I can decide for myself which witchcraft the witch tells me about and which witchcraft I make myself.
