20th Anniversary of the Marienmünster Cultural Foundation

Regular Program 2025 as Preparation for the Anniversary

2025 was the last "regular" year for the Marienmünster Cultural Foundation before its 20th anniversary. The program continued with its proven diversity: Bach Night in July, Bach Hikes in the summer, Holiday Theater in August, BLUEChurch concerts throughout the year, Vesper services, and seasonal concerts. In September 2025, day-to-day operations were the focus, while conceptual work on the 2026 anniversary festival program began in parallel.

The foundation used 2025 to refine the concept for the anniversary festival: a deliberately symbolic date (exact 20-year mark on Sept 11), a four-day festival week instead of a single event, and the intentional inclusion of long-time supporters and artists. This concept culminated in the program from September 11 to 14, 2026.
