The witches dance on the Brocken every year on Walpurgis Night, the night between April 30 and May 01. It is believed that the witches travel to the top of the Brocken to celebrate: the witches dance on the Brocken on Midsummer Night to celebrate summer and the magic of the night. It is an ancient ritual that has survived through many generations. The witches dance ten rounds around a fire and then make the round once clockwise and once counterclockwise.
This ritual is an interesting, mystical event that takes place only once a year - reason enough for many people to travel and experience it.

The Harz Mountains are known for witches because they are the home of the Brocken or Blocksberg. This mountain has been emblematic of the gatherings of witches for centuries - even before Goethe set a literary monument to the ritual in his "Faust," by the way. Meanwhile, the witch is one of the most popular symbols in the Harz Mountains.

The witch's flight and the supposed fact that witches can fly on brooms or similar household objects are one of the best known surviving parts of the folk beliefs surrounding the masters of magic. Especially with the publication of the Hexenhammer from 1486 on, this superstition spread quickly. Why the broom, of all things, was ultimately chosen as the flying object has not been conclusively explained.
