Of course our Vogtland Stollen is very closely connected with our region. Therefore the Goeltzsch Viaduct, the largest bridge built of bricks in the world, is pictured on the boxes of the Vogtland Christmas Stollen.		the Göltzsch Viaduct (© by Andreas Wetzel, with friendly permission Tourismusverband Vogtland e.V.)

• Keep the Stollen in a cool, dry, dark and well closed plastic bag.
• One hour before serving bring up to room temperature.
• Cut the Stollen only from the centre towards the ends, in order to keep it soft and juicy.
• After cutting, put halves together and back into plastic bag.
