Cultural picnic on the Peace Route

At the "Cultural Picnic on the Peace Route" on Sunday, 18 June 2023, you can experience a special cultural format at the historic Haus Marck in Tecklenburg on the occasion of the 375th anniversary of the Peace of Westphalia! Haus Marck played a key role in the Peace of Westphalia as a place of negotiation. The house is located below the town of Tecklenburg in the immediate vicinity of the Teutoburg Forest along the Peace Route.

The programme:
At the large cultural outdoor picnic in front of a historical backdrop, you can experience a variety of regional artists live during your picnic. The cultural programme includes music, theatre and performances. The event takes place on a large meadow with adjacent moats and a view of the moated castle. The cultural picnic is rounded off with a guided tour of "Haus Marck - behind the scenes" (A) or "Haus Marck and the Peace of Westphalia" (B). You can also book one of the two guided tours (A/B) with your admission ticket to the event.

The picnic:
A table is provided for picnics , inviting you to enjoy a convivial get-together. The setting (tables & benches) for the picnic on the meadow will be provided on site. According to the "bring your own" principle , you are invited to bring your own picnic (drinks and food) to the event. For inspiration, you can find special picnic recipes from the Münsterland region here.
For the sake of sustainability, please consider a zero-waste picnic. In addition, the Inner Wheel Club Tecklenburger Land will organise hot and cold drinks on site. The proceeds will be donated to an organisation in Münsterland for a good cause.
The offer includes: Coffee, tea, sparkling wine, water and spritzers.

Two Blue
Duo formation "Two Blue" find their different musical experiences in a common sound that creates a special atmosphere - funky, groovy or thoughtful and always with a little wink.

Galaxy Brass
Brass quintet - of the Westphalian Wilhelms University. The musicians are made up of students and graduates of the Institute for Music Education, the University of Music, and other faculties, and together they dedicate themselves to demanding chamber music for brass. The wide-ranging repertoire extends from festive music of the Renaissance to arrangements of classics (including Beatles) or modern works inspired by jazz.

Klimaschoner
Handpan, viola and mandolin: with this unique instrumentation "Klimaschoner" form their unmistakable sound. The trio finds new paths across cultures in their own compositions. An extraordinary listening pleasure, danceable and meditative.

Sabeth Dannenberg with OUT OF THE BOX
Clownesque frozen food for laughing & crying - guaranteed to last... Imagine it's peace and nobody goes, only the clown Cajú, because she has to. When the world slips into things and things become the world, then terror loses its terror and love loses itself in being in love... A clownine play about war and peace from a stranded freezer with Cajú as the harbinger of a better time.

Also performing:
Die llustre Runde, Les Messieurs a walking act from Theater Moustache and Christoph Gilsbach as Butler George.
