An event presented by Sparte 7/Oldenburg State Theater with Katharina Pelosi
It is everywhere: there under the cobblestone, in the entrance to the underground parking garage, and here on the pedestal—MesyneMo, the remembering intelligence. Accompanied by it, the audience strolls through the city and follows the traces of a mural dedicated to the famous daughters of Oldenburg, though it sparked much controversy.
Equipped with headphones and city maps, they visit various sites of remembrance together, such as the bust of Helene Lange, the Oldenburg Memorial Wall, or the House of Media Art. Following the interconnections between people, places, and historical events, they explore the question: How will we have remembered? How will we look back in the future on the people and debates that shape Oldenburg in 2025, but also on the ways in which we remember? Names, monuments, murals—what will remain and why? Who will tell whose story in the future? Who will listen? And where will we gather to remember?
Info: The audio walk lasts approximately 75 minutes and takes you through Oldenburg’s city center. The route is not wheelchair accessible. The necessary technical equipment will be provided by the theater upon purchase of a ticket. Please wear weatherproof clothing.
