Start the new year with a hearty highlight! After a refreshing walk in the crisp air, we warmly welcome you to our traditional kale dinner. Let yourself be inspired by the sophistication of this classic speciality: tender kale, masterfully prepared and accompanied by finely balanced, hearty side dishes.
We look forward to your reservation – your Forsthaus team.
Saturday, 7 March 2026, 3 p.m.
Before winter ends and spring arrives, we invite you to join us on 7 March 2026 for a special literary journey with music at the Heiligenberg Forsthaus.
The writer Irmgard Dettbarn will read from her own texts – sometimes poetry, sometimes prose, sometimes quiet and sad, then again cheerful and full of joie de vivre. Writing has accompanied her since childhood, but she only became public with it later in life.
Her path has been varied: professional positions as a publisher's bookseller, teacher, psychologist and psychoanalyst, years spent living in Israel, France, Switzerland and China, and a rich family life with four children. All these experiences flow into her texts.
Irmgard Dettbarn invites her audience to share in this diversity: a little bit of life, of being in history and in the world – sometimes rhyming, sometimes not, sometimes this way, sometimes that way.
A literary and musical afternoon to pause, listen and go along with.
Sunday, 22 March 2026, from 11:00 a.m.
Discover the Forsthaus from a whole new perspective. We will be opening our doors at 11:00 a.m. – including areas that are not usually accessible to the public. Get to know our team personally, take an exciting look behind the scenes, experience what makes the forest house special today, and learn more about its history.
Look forward to culinary delights, our local partners, and many personal encounters. A day to get to know each other, exchange ideas, and linger.
Thursday, 26 March, 3 p.m.
We cordially invite you to the Forsthaus for a very special afternoon in a familiar, cosy setting. Owner and heart and soul of the lodge, Adelheid Brüning, opens her heart for the first time and recounts memories, encounters and moments that have shaped this house over many years. Stories you don't usually hear – quiet, moving, honest.
At the same time, there will be room for your own experiences. Whether you want to listen, smile or share a story yourself – this afternoon is all about togetherness, remembering and sharing stories.
The meeting will be accompanied by a small selection of surprising delicacies from our kitchen.
This event is exclusive and will take place for the first time.
Participation is by prior registration only.
