WuppDays #8, Heichelheim (Weimar), 2016-06-13 to 2016-06-27

Since these WuppDays are in a rural area and there are ongoing construction activities, these WuppDays might require more individual flexibility and participation from attendees, see details below.

Description

The place is a former restaurant/inn with a windmill and a lake nearby. It is 8 km north of Weimar in a rural area. Reachable by bus (every 1-2 hours, only daytime), hitchhiking and car/bike.
Three main buildings: the living house, the storage house and the windmill. A big area of grassland, usable for camping and other outside activities. Additionally, there are smaller pieces of grassland around with fireplaces.
