Culture

Hof boasts a modern repertory theatre with extraordinary architecture and the Hof Symphony Orchestra is at the centre of cultural life in North Bavaria [more]

Untreusee

To the south of Hof, still within the town boundaries, is the recreation area “Untreusee”. Although artificially created, the lake blends in well with the gentle hilly landscape, as if it had been made by mother nature. [more]

"Schlappentag"

Their “national holiday” is Schlappentag, which has been celebrated since 1432. On the first Monday after Whitsun a long procession of artisans and riflemen makes its way to the Schießhäuschen and the near-by Seligen-Wiesen, where they enjoy a specially brewed strong beer. [more]
