Hofer Schnitz
The culinary weekly market tour
A world full of freshness, colors and smells - that's the weekly market in Hof on the Maxplatz. It can look back on a centuries-old tradition and is closely linked to the town's early history. Products of outstanding quality make a visit a real pleasure. Explore the delicious specialties of the individual traders on this guided tour.
The weekly market is also a place where you can learn the recipes for typical Hof dishes: "Saure Zipfel", for example, or "Schwammabrieh", stockfish and woodruff punch. Some market women, however, who proudly tell how many of their "Glees" are eaten on Sunday, fall silent when asked about the ingredients for their real Hof "Schnitz" - after all, they are a closely guarded family secret ...
