Our quaint and attractive village, nestled among meadows beside the small river Apfelstaedt, is home to many plant and animal species.

Special conservation regulations and foresting measures have helped a variety of trees grow and flourish here. Historic stonewalls, natural stone paved foot paths, picket 
fences and hedges give our village its own special character. Surrounding gardens, orchards and fields complete the picture of an idyllic village in a lovely rural 
setting.

Wechmar is a wonderful place to live or to visit.

A great amount of time and effort dedicated to club activities and cultural events has helped make 
Wechmar a popular festival venue. With about 170 festive occasions and cultural events annually one can begin to understand the cultural activity you can expect 
here all year around.
