On October 1st (2021) the support group Koenigshuette (king’s hut) received two donation checks in the run-up to the board meeting. One is income from the reading of crime novels from the Harz-mountains, which had taken place on September 7 at the king’s hut (Koenigshuette). The authors Gabriele Bock, Helmut Exner, Ruediger Glaesser, Corinna Klengel, Barbara Merten, Hans-Joachim Wildner as well as the publisher had waived their fees, the bookstore had sold the tickets without charge. In this process, € 720 had been collected. The ladies of the sewing group Bad Lauterberg also had a donation check with them; it showed the sum of € 751. This sum was collected through the sale of self-sewn articles of all kinds, but also through the sale of drinks and pretzels, on the reading of the crime novels and on the Open Monument Day. Hans-Heinrich Hillegeist, the chairman of our sponsoring group, thanked the bringers of the checks and acknowledged their commitment.

Review of the open-air cinema evening last September

it says: central light games - cinema world - 'Herzberg at the Harz mountains' presents: 

On Friday evening, September 24, 2021, there was a movie night at the Koenigshuette (king’s hut) in Bad Lauterberg. It was planned as an open-air event, but in view of the weather forecast it was moved to the fettling shop, a section in the foundry building. Already in the morning, the set-up took place, ‘Kinowelt Herzberg’ (cinema world of Herzberg) brought the equipment for the cinema evening and chairs were set up. Before the film 'the pretty big dream' startet, there was at 7:30 p.m. a short  guided tour - owed to the late hour, which makes some stumbling blocks of the premises invisible. For the film itself, the 3G rules applied, even if it was no longer mandatory at this point due to the Corona location, but safety first. The ladies from the sewing group called ‘Naehtreff’ supplied the visitors with drinks - including wine and sparkling wine, and also with pretzels and - as befits a cinema evening - popcorn to satisfy the small appetite.

The festive week for the ‘200th birthday of Sebastian Kneipp and 500 years of Bergfreiheit’ (500 years right of mining) is over, the responsible persons and many helpers can breathe a little easier again. On September 3, the festival week was opened by our first chairman, Mr. Hillegeist, with a special exhibition in the local history museum. On Saturday, September 4, there was an official opening in the spa park. Mr. Hillegeist gave a lecture on '500 years of right of mining' and 'the former mountain town of Lutterberg'.

 Several events also took place at the Koenigshuette (kings’ hut location), such as the jazz service on September 5 (2021), with Pastor Schmidt and the Waiting Room JazzBand under the direction of Mr. Joerg Baitz from Herzberg. "... an atmospheric service in front of a historic backdrop" was the opinion of many visitors.  Afterwards there was a morning pint with roasted sausages and drinks, to which the 'Waiting Room JazzBand' continued to play. The band is a band of amateur musicians from different age groups and professions, some of them retired.
