The texts are understandable even without knowledge. Ten audio stations invite you to listen, e.g. to songs and prayers that are used at funerals. There are also many hands-on elements. With this exhibition, St. Barbara Cemetery is responding to the challenge of a multicultural and multi-religious society, which is also playing an increasingly important role in the life of a traditional Christian-Catholic cemetery. It promotes dialog, because dealing with death - before which everyone is equal - has a unifying effect, because it is about existentially important things for all people. Concept and texts: Andrea Mayer-Edoloeyi. Location: in the small farewell hall at the cemetery or meeting point at the porter, Friedhofsstr. 1.
