Traditional Sounds and Atmospheric Live Music
The summer festival on the Jenzig-Bergterrasse, also known as the “Balcony of Jena,” impresses every year with its special, nature-oriented atmosphere and wide views over the Saaletal. The evening will be opened traditionally at 5:00 PM by the hunting horn players of the Steinbergquartett Kranichfeld.
Following this, the duo “Vol-Mut” will provide entertainment under the open sky with a selection of atmospheric live music. The team from the Berggasthaus Jenzig is responsible for the culinary provision of food and drinks on site.
A Rewarding Weekend in Jena
The summer festival offers an ideal opportunity to end Saturday evening in a convivial atmosphere above the rooftops of the city. Those who wish to further expand their day culturally can also visit the semester closing concerts of the Psycho-Chor Jena in the Volksbad, which are also taking place this Saturday.
Admission to the Jenzig is free for all visitors; however, the organizing Jenzig-Gesellschaft welcomes a small donation to support its non-profit projects around the mountain.
🎭 The Jenzig-Gesellschaft e.V.
The Jenzig-Gesellschaft looks back on a long tradition and has been committed to the preservation and maintenance of the Jenzig as one of the most striking landmarks of the Jena region since its founding in 1903. The association takes care of the maintenance of the hiking trails, the beautification of the mountain plateau, and the protection of the local flora and fauna on a voluntary basis. Through regular events and work assignments, the society contributes significantly to keeping the mountain alive as a popular excursion and local recreation destination.
