St. Salvatoris Church, Zellerfeld

Highlight • Religious Site

In 1997, the winged altar by the Leipzig artist Werner Tübke, who died in 2004, was consecrated in the St. Salvatoris Church in Zellerfeld, which was rebuilt after the great city fire in 1683. The organ case (1699-1702) is by Arp Schnitger. Below the church are the Trebra Terraces - they were built by the Trebra Miner at the end of the 18th century.

Mining Authority

Highlight • Historical Site

The former Clausthal office building was the administrative building for all mining matters and at the same time the official seat of the miner. The representative office building is located directly opposite the Market Church of the Holy Spirit, which is in the center of the historic market square. Thus secular and ecclesiastical power faced each other in the heart of Clausthal. The entrance hall and stairwell are open
Monday to Thursday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Friday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.

A rather small university with around 3,000 students, but very good for some technical subjects.

Surprisingly large and very eye-catching church due to the blue color.

Market Church of the Holy Spirit
The market church of the Holy Spirit in Clausthal was built in the middle of the Thirty Years' War from oak and spruce and the roof was covered with lead. In 1642 it was consecrated at Pentecost. The Market Church is the second largest preserved wooden church in Europe after Kerimäki Church. A very extensive renovation was completed in 2011.

Oberharzer Mining Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

The history of the Mining Museum began in 1884, when the then Mining Captain Adolf Achenbach issued a directive calling on miners to donate special, disused historical mining equipment to a collection for the establishment of a museum. In 1892, it was officially established as the Zellerfeld District Museum.
After the merger of the previously independent towns of Zellerfeld and Clausthal to form the twin town of Clausthal-Zellerfeld in 1924, the vacant Zellerfeld Town Hall was occupied, and the museum was reopened on October 8, 1928, at the 58th Annual General Meeting of the Harz Society for History and Archaeology. In the following years, the outdoor area with the show mine was built.

March 25, 2025,Spaziergang in Clausthal-Zellerfeld
The mining and university town of Clausthal-Zellerfeld lives up to its name. We had to endure a few ups and downs on our city tour.
The houses look typical of the Harz region. Fortunately, there are few new buildings, and even those that do, they fit in perfectly with the tranquil town. It seems like there's a Dennert fir on …
