For more than 25 years, the Literaturhaus has been an integral part of the city's cultural life. From the classic "water glass reading" to the surprising mix of debutants, from Nobel Prize winners to slam poets: anyone of literary standing (or on the way to it) appears here. Concerts and film screenings, scientific expert panels and, last but not least, the changing exhibitions on topics from literature, politics and society: the program of the Literaturhaus provides surprising insights into the world of literature and related arts. In top-class seminars for aspiring authors, schoolchildren and interested amateurs, the Literaturhaus team passionately conveys how enriching it is to write, to read and to live with books.
