The mysterious circumstances surrounding the death of the parish secretary cast a dark shadow over the community. And as if that wasn’t enough\, a series of arson attacks unsettle the town. Who is targeting the parish? Is it about old bills\, a covered-up crime or is there something else behind it? School psychologist Hannah Schmielink has just moved to Altenkirchen with her family. She\, her husband Jan and his colleagues from the Münster CID are soon caught up in a maelstrom of dramatic events… \nOn this evening\, enjoy exciting entertainment with a local touch and a tasting of various delicacies.

There is hardly a little monster\, a friendly giant or even a mythical creature that he has not yet encountered. \nAnd yet Pit still has a great thirst for adventure and is happy to welcome all sailors aged 4 and over who want to travel with him. Because the bigger his crew\, the more exciting the journey will be for everyone! \nAnyone who is interested in more adventures is invited to listen to Pit’s pirate stories and become part of his crew\, and then decide for themselves whether his tales are perhaps a little true or a lot of fiction. \nPirates who are in the mood for more reading adventures at the end of the reading session can then make their own discoveries in the children’s library.

Initially carried away by the prevailing enthusiasm for the war in the summer of 1914\, later shaken by the collapse of the German Empire\, he finally made a profound political about-turn. \nAfter the assassination of the German Foreign Minister Walther Rathenau\, he revised his previous stance and became a convinced democrat\, which he remained until the end of his life. \nHis speech “My Time”\, which he gave in Chicago in 1950\, was an important and impressive testimony\, as it manifested his aversion to all forms of totalitarianism. \nSince then\, Thomas Mann has decisively rejected any dogmatic dictatorship. \nTo mark the 150th anniversary of his birth\, the life of one of the most influential German writers of the 20th century will be examined in more detail.
