The BBK Kunsthaus currently shows the exhibition “Modern Fairy tales”, i.e. classic pieces of art newly interpreted by Friedhelm Kranz. The show is not fantasy but magical. The way Kranz displays his acts is extraordinary. Works and art forms of other artists are copied and manipulated. And maybe they are also, that’s my thought, newly interpreted. For that the works
On this sunday (24.4.2022) there is a reason to celebrate: After more than a decade of reconstruction the historic town hall of Goslar will open its doors to the public. And even though I have been there several times and a kid and later on as well I have to admit that I rediscovered this treasure anew. It raises my
Stralsund is the pearl on the doorstep of Rügen. With its historical centre, the well preserved city wall and the ocean museum Ozeaneum the Hanseatic city is really attractive. Even though the weather is quite rainy and windy today, we still enjoyed the guided city tour. A visit to the ocean museum might be a must. However my recommendation is
Usedom is the second biggest island of Germany. It is connected to the mainland by a bridge. Travellers can reach Usedom by car, train, by bike and also by foot. When I think of Usedom the prominent piers come into my mind. I also think of the magnificent buildings of the former centuries which decorate the so called emperor baths
This sunday we are on the move in the Nördliches Harzvorland. We want to expand our stamp collection and decided on the stamp stations around Lutter am Barenberg, Wallmoden and Bodenstein. On our way we take a seat on a stone sofa, visit grandma and grandpa and take up the track of the hunters, make a stopover at the cholera
Almost on the doorstep we find a hiking path like no other: The round course through the Hochsolling (HS1). Next to the boardwalk through the high moor Mecklenbruch we get to know the moor ghost of Hochsolling. We stop for a bite to eat at the Hotel Christina at Neuhaus and make acquaintance with the Ahle source. We streak the
The first bicycle tour of the year is always something special. There is the spring-like breezing in our face on the one hand. On the other hand we enjoy the early bloomer and the delicate green around us. The feeling of freedom, the first warm sun beams on our face and just to enjoy life as it is: flowing like
I like Hildesheim and its environment consistently better. I have been to this area several times during Corona. For example, I visited the Hildesheimer Wald and the beautiful Tosmarkamm. This time we are about to walk along the river „Innerste“ and the Giesener Teiche. We are especially surprised by the landscape around the nature reserve „Giesener Teiche“. Between the grassy
Facing Britain is the name of the exhibition which is currently shown at the museum Mönchehaus Goslar. It is a touring exhibition that could be visited in other German cities before. Facing Britain claims that it documents the development of the British society from the 1960ies until today. What has started as documentary photography, our guide tells us, ends with
Are you looking for play, fund and excitement without having to buy the famous Kinder Surprise? If so, I have something for you. Here comes the extra: collecting stamps in the Wolfenbüttel area. Sounds boring to you? It’s not at all. Play: collecting stamps. Fun: drinking coffee at Willeckes Lust. Excitement: a hike along the former german-german border between Hornburg
