Playing, laughing, being loud, romping, doing nothing – and that in an exhibition house! From September 4, 2024, BAUBAU invites exactly that. In the play space for children designed by artist Kerstin Brätsch, more is allowed than forbidden. Colorful wallpapers, structures, objects, and a range of “Loose Parts” form spaces on the ground floor of the Gropius Bau that do not impose fixed guidelines but are determined by the activities of the children. They dictate the direction and form of what happens here. Thus, this place becomes a space of possibilities that can change day by day.

BAUBAU will launch in September 2024 in a prototype version and will continue to develop and grow over the coming years both inside and outside the Gropius Bau – in close exchange with the children and their wishes, as this is their place.

The Play
All children have the urge to play. This is how they learn to understand themselves and the world. Especially open, self-determined play is of great significance for emotional and social development. The educational concept for BAUBAU is therefore based on the principles of free play: Here, there is time, space, and permission for children to follow their own needs and interests. They are accompanied by playworkers – trained staff who create a safe and supportive environment where children can play freely.

 
The Art
BAUBAU playfully questions what a museum or an art institution should be. The comprehensive spatial design developed by Kerstin Brätsch is full of references and inspirations: elements from her previous works, such as marbling, paintings, or stucco marble work, reappear here in altered forms and materialities. The wallpapers, curtains, fabrics, seating furniture, and climbing structures are inhabited by dinosaurs, fantastical beings, termite mounds, and abstract elements. With their strange, funny, and perhaps a bit eerie shapes, they create an open framework for free play.

Kerstin Brätsch's practice is designed to allow and incorporate influences from outside. While she has previously collaborated with artists or artisans, she now does so in a completely different way with children: She invites the children to reshape and further develop the space according to their own ideas and visions, without the influence of the artist in unpredictable ways.

The permanent exhibition on the life and work of Erich Maria Remarque offers a detailed look into the life, work, and thoughts of the famous writer through numerous photographs, documents, and manuscripts. The exhibition is bilingual, presented in German and English throughout.

Divided into seven sections covering his youth in Osnabrück (1898–1921), the years in Hanover and Berlin (1922–1928), the discussion around All Quiet on the Western Front (1928–1930), his exile in Europe (1931–1939) and the USA (1939–1948), his political works in the 1950s, and the 1960s leading up to his death on September 25, 1970 in Locarno, the exhibition attempts to highlight the ruptures, contradictions, and controversies in Remarque's life while emphasizing their productivity for his work. It illustrates Remarque's numerous psychological conflicts, aiming to resolve the apparent contradiction between the "bon vivant" and the "militant pacifist," and provides insight into his acquaintances, friendships, and marriages. Numerous originals such as the death mask or Remarque's original desk complement the presentation.

Another focus of the exhibition is the worldwide, often highly controversial reception of Remarque's works, which have been translated into at least 60 languages and continue to attract a global audience of millions.

An information terminal allows visitors to delve deeper into specific questions about Remarque's life and work. Another terminal provides access to over 2,000 photographs spanning all stages of Remarque's life, his residences, contacts, and the film adaptations of his works.

The exhibition is open for free visits on Tuesdays to Fridays from 10 am to 1 pm and from 3 pm to 5 pm, and on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 am to 5 pm. Guided tours for school classes and other interest groups can also be arranged outside regular opening hours. Tours can be scheduled with Mr. Martin Siemsen (siemsen.m@osnabrueck.de) by phone at 0541/323-2109 or fax at 0541/323-4355.

A shop on-site offers materials related to Remarque's life and work for sale.

The castle with a lot to offer: "HerrschaftsZeiten! Erlebnis Cadolzburg" from June 24, 2017 at the Cadolzburg - the new highlight of the Nuremberg Metropolitan Region

A powerful castle - the setting of the illustrious history of a ruling family that has achieved great success: this was and is the Cadolzburg. The rulers were the Hohenzollern family, who ruled over Franken and later Brandenburg, also gaining electoral dignity in the 15th century. Later on, they even became Prussian kings and German emperors.

The Cadolzburg derives its radiance not only from its role as the starting point of a significant career in the Holy Roman Empire - the impressive structure itself reflects this golden era of the Hohenzollerns. The new museum "HerrschaftsZeiten! Erlebnis Cadolzburg" of the Bavarian Administration of State Castles will make this time - the late Middle Ages - exciting and informative for visitors through innovative communication concepts. While walking through the castle, visitors can learn not only about the architectural history, wars and peace, daily life, and governing tasks of the princely castle residents. There is much to discover here through interactive and sensory means:

Visitors can experience the castle through their sense of smell, there are tactile stations, sounds and dialogues, vivid models, and invitations to try things out. Exciting or challenging games, medieval Hohenzollerns in their own words, and the jester Contz who guides visitors through the castle bring the Middle Ages to life. Visitors can also expect to see several original medieval artifacts such as swords, maces, or a magnificent treasure chest. Other objects were specially crafted for the museum based on extensive research in historical techniques, such as the gilded armor of the famous General Albrecht Achilles, or textiles dyed according to original recipes. The Bavarian Administration of State Castles also made significant contributions to experimental historical research, like creating a breastplate from boiled leather, in line with the ambition of creating one of Germany's most important castle museums.

The cultural communication of the Bavarian Administration of State Castles also offers a diverse program of accompanying events, making this exciting history even more intriguing - for the young nobleman as well as the castle enthusiast.

Not only the Middle Ages but also the Cadolzburg itself now comes back to life. After the extensive damage of World War II, original medieval rooms and successful architectural creations of the 21st century can now be experienced. The modern buildings completed in 2017 bridge the medieval era with our present time.

You can expect very special experiences here - it truly is THE CASTLE WITH A LOT TO OFFER.

Sauna World, Steam Bath, and Aroma Grotto in Sellin

In The Butterland

"Butterland" is what sailors call a mirage that tricks them into thinking of home. When the sauna heat rises or damp vapors waft – that's when it might happen to you at AHOI! Rügen as well. It gets hazy, as sailors say, when the weather shifts and we no longer know which way is up. But in the sauna landscape, that's precisely the right mood to dive into fantasy worlds. So go ahead and set sail, sailor, take your sweetheart in your arms and shed off the ballast. Go on a pirate raid in the steam bath and drop anchor in the aroma grotto. Enough with the eternal nitpicking – just sit there like the mate on the lookout, staring into the distance, that's what it's all about now! Even true buccaneers enjoy lounging in the solarium. They drift in the cozy wind of relaxation, like in a hammock on deck. Our sauna infusions really heat things up, and they come, whenever they want or the crew wishes it.

"We are the Champions," "We will rock you," or "Bohemian Rhapsody" – Queen has written rock history. To this day, the hits of the quartet from Britain get not only die-hard music fans from the 70s and 80s dancing and singing along. The Oscar-winning film "Bohemian Rhapsody" has set a cinematic monument to the band.

The British tribute band The Bohemians brings the myth of the legendary band back to life in a spectacular stage show. First-class musicians, singers, and entertainers present the biggest hits from Queen in a two-and-a-half-hour show, featuring songs from their early days to their "later works," from disco classics to rock ballads. The English producers of the show have spared no effort in elaborate costumes and show effects, allowing the visitors to feel transported back to the golden age of rock music for one night.

With Rob Comber, The Bohemians have a frontman who delivers an authentic and high-quality homage to Freddie Mercury, both vocally and visually. From the distinctive mustache to the electrifying, energetic movements, he comes as close to his idol as possible. Vocal power and performance make the memory of one of the greatest rock bands of all time an extraordinary experience.

The Bohemians create a spark with their joy of playing, stage presence, and passion, ensuring that the excitement quickly transfers to the audience. This makes for the best conditions for an emotional concert evening with fantastic music – both for die-hard Queen fans and for those who discovered the band only after Freddie Mercury's death.

ZENsation – China's Grandmasters of Balance

A handstand here is not just an act – it is a state of total balance and identification with being. With the show “ZENsation,” the Chinese National Circus returns to its roots: poetic, philosophical, and physically brilliant. A best-of-show of award-winning acrobatic performances from over 2,000 years of Zájì tradition, newly interpreted by young talents from China's best circus academies. What remains is a collective amazement at a form of body art that makes the viewer forget gravity. What emerges is an emotional journey through the Middle Kingdom – impressive, clear, and sublime. The stage becomes a temple of balance. It is a fresh start – and a coming home.

Chinese National Circus – More than just an Entertainment Brand

For 35 years, this circus has been building bridges – between people, systems, continents. What began in 1989 as a visionary cultural initiative is now a successful European project with heart and conviction. With almost scientific precision, the art of Zájì is celebrated – as an expression of a philosophy that unites body, mind, and soul. Not a state product, but free, creative, and culturally connecting. Over 15 million spectators attest: Here, a dialogue of acrobatics is created, uniting the depth of China with Western openness. A breathtaking circus as a stage for international understanding.
