Immerse yourself in the world of natural cuisine with our exclusive cooking courses at Schloss Schmarsow. Under the guidance of Erwin Seitz - chef, butcher, author and food critic - you will discover how to prepare fine dishes with fresh, regional ingredients. In the historic castle kitchen, tradition and modernity come together before you enjoy the dishes you have created together in a stylish ambience.
The spacious castle kitchen and the historic dining room provide the ideal setting for the cooking courses. The focus is on cooking close to nature: fresh, high-quality ingredients that are in harmony with the season, origin and well-being. The dishes should be healthy, enjoyable and tempting in equal measure.
Regional and local products are used above all - in the spirit of sustainability, freshness and short distances. At the same time, an eye is kept open for special flavors from all over the world, which occasionally enrich North German and North Alpine flavors. Each ingredient should develop its own character, while the finished dish impresses with harmony, sensuality and a harmonious composition.
