It rarely happens, but when it does: snow in the pre-Christmas season. Right on time for the beginning of the Christmas month of December, the white beauty falls from the sky. With a powdery layer on the streets, the Christmas spirit sets in. The Advent season couldn’t start any better. And when on the first of December, it’s said, “Magni
Sylt in November. Gray clouds, rough sea, lots of wind, and rain. That’s how I imagine (late) autumn on the North Sea. But, and this is also part of the truth, in this season, the island exudes a calmness that quickly transfers to me. So, in case the train brings me safely and somewhat punctually – which at least succeeds
The world of art is constantly in motion. In this exciting environment, there are always emerging talents who stand out with fresh ideas and unique perspectives. The association “bskunst” has made it its mission to give these creatives a stage. Currently, an exhibition titled “Newcomer 2” is running in the foyer of the Centro Hotel. I had the opportunity to

The former village looks back on a long tradition. The first documented mention dates back to the year 1007. The first settlers established themselves in the common reed – nobody knows why. Even
There is something going on in Brunswieck – culturally. First of all there were the musically and artistically highlights of Buskers in May this year and secondly of the „Kulturnacht“ on June 17th.

Last year I was hooked on the „Buskers“ festival. Today I still like to remember the six Frenchmen from the year 2022 who amused me so much. This year there is once again a diversified programme made of floor shows and bands. This time I join the festival already on Friday watching the performance of Cirque Tango from Argentina and
„Do it yourself, make it new, make it nice“, this triad is the motto of the artistry of the art nouveau period. The exhibition „Goddess of art nouveau“ is dedicated to this art historical era at the edge of the 19th century to the 20 th century.

This march does not do what I want: it is colt, mostly grey and it rains a lot. In other words, it is not really hiking or bicycling weather. That’s why we decided on a weekend of art. Cinema, a themed tour within the Botanical Garden and an opening are on our programme. We start with Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans
60 years of German-Turkish friendship (GTf) is the slogan of the “Gurbet-Tour” by Shanaya, a band from Hanover on the occasion of 60 years “home” in Lower Saxony.

Due to the Corona pandemic the concert
We stand at the Waisenhausdamm. Street number 8-11 is our goal. The former florist shop is currently home of an foto exhibition. It is about Charkiw, a city in the east of Ukraine. A city, which name and geography was only known to a handful of people. In the past weeks however, the second biggest city of the Ukraine become
