Weddings

The GRIMMWELT is an absolutely unique, fairy-tale setting for you to tie the knot.

The wedding chamber is our FREIRAUM location, with its wonderful view of Kassel’s Südstadt district.
After the ceremony you can propose the wedding toast with your guests at a champagne reception in the Foyer or the café-restaurant FALADA. If you wish, you can also book a tour of the exhibition.

The GRIMMWELT also offers an exclusive backdrop for your precious wedding photos, such as the roof garden with spectacular views over the rooftops of Kassel, or the picturesque greenery of the Weinbergpark.

At present, a sit-down reception can be held in the FALADA café-restaurant; we hope will be able to offer stand-up receptions at bistro tables in the Foyer again very soon.
