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
When temperatures go up to 30 degrees centrigrade cooling is desired. The many lakes close to Clausthal-Zellerfeld are a popular destination. They are called the „Oberharzer Teiche“. But did you also hear about the Harzer coral reef at the Hutthaler Graben? Well, the Harz is always good for a surprise. It only takes some fantasie and suddenly the red osier
The wine discovery oft he year is called „Sonnengruß“. It can be bought either as „dry“ or „off-dry“. The delicious drink is offered by the vineyard Neufriedstein at Radebeul. The liquid can be consumed at the corresponding season bar restaurant. By chance the vineyard is idyllic located high above Radebeul. So while enjoying you wine you also can take adavantage
A saying goes: each to his own. In other words, anybody shall live and act as one think best. But how about if the behaviour breaches the public order? That’s what we experienced last sunday between Braunlage and Sankt Andreasberg. Sexually explicit dragonflies copulate free and easy at the shore of the water. Every ancient Roman brothel would pales besides
Summer, sun, music and a good mood. That could be the motto for this years’s festival at Brunswick. From friday to sunday evening different bands and artists are performing in the city. My favourite act are six artists from France. The sextet is called „Demain on change tout“. The guys are so fascinating that in comparison the pied piper is
It is Whit Monday and therefore German Mill Day. We want to explore some of the technical masterpieces. On the internet I search for some interesting buildings near by. I choose the mill Liesebach at Räbke. I also come across the water mill of Klein Quenstedt. Being close to Haldensleben we decide to combine the visits with some cycling. Just
The Allgäu is a hikers’ paradise. The village of Bad Hindelang (825 a.a.) located in the Upper Allgäu is a great starting point for mountain hikes. We climb six peaks in a weak. Thereby we enhance our performance from 1.456 metres to 2000 metres. Next to the Hirschberg (1.456), the Spieser (1.651), the Imberger horn (1.656), the Iseler (1.876) and
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
