Vischering Castle

In the exhibition, the Hamburg artist couple Dodo Schielein and Torsten Bruch address diverse approaches to the body and sound. On the basis of seven mostly sounding works, visitors gain insights into fictitious, playful worlds in which sound is embodied or one's own body becomes a sound producer through instructions for action.

Admiring great art not only in the museum, but also taking it home: this is what interested people can do in the popular exhibition series "ART Vischering", which takes place every year in Vischering Castle. Here, art is offered for sale, as a gift for oneself and others. Graphics and paintings by renowned artists, but also by young artists, are presented. The exhibition features big names alongside artists from the local region, making for a varied exhibition.

Who would have thought it? Poultry was already an extremely popular dish in the Middle Ages. Prepared a little differently than today, of course. During this cooking course, various medieval dishes will be rediscovered. Even though the cooking takes place in the cosy ambience of the castle kitchen, there is fortunately no need to do without top modern equipment. And a nice glass of wine warms heart and soul.

During three afternoons of the course, participants learn the basics of the expressive, "broken" tempura script. Individual stroke elements are first practised with a broad ribbon pen, which are then connected to form letters and words. The three dates can only be booked together.

In June 2021 they were awarded the German Jazz Prize in the category "Band of the Year International", and on 6 November these Austrian shooting stars will be guests at the Münsterland Festival: Shake Stew will play at Burg Vischering to close the eleventh edition of the festival. There they will present a mix of hypnotic Afrobeats and ecstatic sound eruptions.

Hardly any other band has turned the Central European jazz scene upside down like Shake Stew in recent years. While the ZEIT called them "Austria's jazz band of the hour" and the NDR gave them the status of "cult band" early on, it has been clear since the awarding of the German Jazz Prize at the latest: something has started rolling here that has never existed before.

From the very beginning, the formation founded by bassist and composer Lukas Kranzelbinder has been surrounded by something mystical that ignites an evocative effect in the live concert: "The unspoken magic words are magic and energy - Shake Stew brings something cultic to current jazz, an enrichment!"Despite their unusual line-up with two drums, two basses and three horns, the band always manages to catch their listeners in a direct way and take them on a unique sound journey.

Everything revolves around the potato at the potato festival in November. An autumn market invites you to stroll and shop from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. There will be culinary delights all about the tuber and much more to discover. Lüdinghausen's shops will also open their doors from 1 to 6 p.m. and have special offers and promotions in shop for visitors. There will also be a colourful children's programme.

The potato festival traditionally starts a week before with the "Culinary Potato Week". The restaurants taking part in the campaign will each contribute a dish to choose from, and the potato dishes can be tasted in the respective Lüdinghausen restaurant.

For children from 4 - 10 years.

Awarded Children's Theatre of the Month by the Kultursekretariat NRW.

MAXX lives in Himmelshausen in the clouds right next to the Himmelaya, the highest mountains on earth. "Dream repairs of every kind!" is written on his big entrance sign. MAXX is a dream tinkerer by profession. Every day he gets new orders and has to fix the dreams of the small and big people on earth. Ronalda finally wants to score a goal. Jan Philip wishes to kiss Denise. Eva-Maria wants to get really spooked.

MAXX has so much to do that he has even forgotten his own dreams. And then everything becomes too much for him and he has had enough. From now on, everyone only gets the same dream. Everything new, everything the same, everything nice, everything cheap! But it doesn't work like that either! That's much too boring. Off we go on a journey to exciting encounters, unknown dangers, sentimental moments, funny experiences and new insights. With lots of music and a wonderfully imaginative stage design by children's book illustrator Selda Soganci.
