Halver — A Small Town with a Great Cultural Tradition
Halver is a small town with approximately 16,000 inhabitants in the Märkischer Kreis, Arnsberg administrative region. Despite its small size, the town maintains a remarkably broad cultural programme and positions itself as a cultural centre of the southern Sauerland region. Kulturzeit is an expression of this self-image and enjoys supra-regional attention for its high-quality programme.
