Agenda

There’s always something going on

Sometimes you come to Gerardushoeve for a few days’ break. Sometimes for a special day or a long evening over dinner. On this page, we’ve put together a list of the activities and events that take place here and are organised by us throughout the year.

Standalone activity

Out and about with Gerardushoeve – Aachen in the Christmas spirit

From the Aachen Christmas market to our Limburg winter table.

Christmas market at Aachen’s historic town hall in winter A day out at the Aachen Christmas market, without having to worry about parking or who’s driving back. We’ll set off together from Hotel Gerardushoeve at 11.00. By around 11.30, you’ll be right in the heart of the historic city centre. With your Gerardus Card in hand, you can decide for yourself how to spend the day: strolling through the Christmas market, enjoying a leisurely lunch, doing some shopping or taking a walk through the old town. At 4.30 pm, we’ll pick you up again. Back in Heijenrath, there’ll be time for a drink, after which you’ll be invited to join us for a Limburg winter feast at Gerardus Gastrobar, prepared with produce and flavours we’re proud of.

Included

  • Transport from Hotel Gerardushoeve to Aachen and back
  • The Gerardus map of Aachen showing our route, addresses and personal tips
  • Free time to explore Aachen at your own pace
  • A Limburg winter feast at Gerardus Gastrobar

Departure at 11.00 am from Hotel Gerardushoeve; return around 5.00 pm. Lunch and refreshments in Aachen, drinks after returning and other drinks are not included. Places are limited.
