Editorial note for prospective volunteers: Opus Gothique appears to still be active (they continue to share updates and volunteer information via their official channels). Their current volunteer FAQ describes a Monday to Friday schedule of 09:00โ12:00 and 14:00โ17:00 (about 6 hours/day, 5 days/week). This differs from the older โ4โ5 hoursโ line in the host text below, so please confirm the current daily schedule and season dates directly with the host before you plan your trip.
