On Saturday 12 December at 4 pm, the Klosterhofsaal in Georgenthal stages “Ox & Esel” (Ox and Donkey), a German-language Christmas story for children and grown-ups. Tickets at the Georgenthal tourist information or online.
Ox comes home to his stable – and finds a little bundle of human lying in his manger. Donkey has to come and help, but he is never around when you need him. When he finally turns up, neither of them knows what to do with the little crybaby, who is being searched for outside by soldiers and three strange men. The two lovable animals take over as parents until the real parents return.
A touching and entertaining Christmas story for children and grown-ups, performed in German.
When: Saturday, 12 December 2026, 4 pm

Tickets: only at the Georgenthal tourist information or online from the municipality of Georgenthal (German) – not from us.
