About

Hanau is the birthplace of the Brothers Grimm, and since 1985 the city has staged their fairy tales outdoors in the park of Schloss Philippsruhe. Each season brings three new fairy-tale productions, a musical, a play with music and a family play, plus plays for older teens and adults. Shows are in German, so this suits kids who follow a story by watching.

Kids from €19, adults from €37 (2026)
