A restorative and inspiring weekend escape
Get away from it all and focus on meditation!
Here in Hamburg, we currently only offer one class in English on Wednesday nights. However, our Resident Teacher, Miri, has been invited by Tharpaland KMC to lead a weekend retreat for English speaking people there. Details about the weekend can be found on the event website, please click on the button above.
Tharpland is the main seat of our tradition in Germany and - due to its location and size - regularly hosts longer retreats and national and international events.
Tharpaland’s home is the beautifully restored Castle Sommerswalde, which sits nestled inside a large private park and is surrounded by miles of public woodlands. The castle building contains the main meditation hall, a cafe and a shop, and offers comfortable accommodations ranging from single rooms to dorms. A separate, smaller house in a more private area of the property offers small apartments for both visitors to events like this, as well as for solitary retreats.
Tharpaland is located some 30 km north of Berlin and accessible by public transport via Oranienburg (S-Bahn and regional trains, plus taxi) or Schwante (regional trains plus 30 mins walk or pickup by car if volunteer drivers are available).
