Whether classic with meat, vegetarian with spinach, cheese, or mushrooms, vegan, sweet, or as a burger – the Maultaschen Festival is all about Germany’s favorite dumpling in all its forms: folded, rolled, in broth, fried, on a stick, or as Maultaschen meatloaf. There’s something for every taste!
What's new this year: The festival kicks off on Friday evening with a grand opening followed by after-work parties – turning two days of culinary delights into three days of Maultaschen festivities.
