The International Chainsaw Carving Days Black Forest is one of the main annual events in this region. Visitors from near and far came to Wolfach last year to watch the 40 carvers from all over the world. All the carvings from 2011 are on display in Wolfach.

This year the event will be the 6th time and we warmly invite you to be there on the 09th and 10th of June when 40 artists from Germany and all over the world will magically create delicate and intricate sculptures with their heavy chainsaws.
