By bike in the footsteps of the colonial school

From colonial past to present-day responsibility - How does a society view and evaluate events of the past and what is the expression of its present-day values? This is the motto of the bike tour. For this purpose, places will be visited that were shaped by the former colonial school in Witzenhausen. The current location of the University of Witzenhausen, Steinstraße, is the starting point of the tour. This is where the colonial school was founded in 1898, 125 years ago. The tour continues to places and farms, in the surrounding area and to the Fabarius beech tree. At the stops the historical facts and the relation to the colonial history are presented and discussed.

The tour is about 25 km long and moderately difficult. It takes about three hours. Start is in Witzenhausen, Steinstraße 19. Please bring enough drinks and possibly something to eat. A registration is not necessary.

The participation costs 4 €
