Festung Hohensalzburg

Festung Hohensalzburg

Die Festung Hohensalzburg ist eine beeindruckende Festungsanlage, die hoch über der Stadt Salzburg in Österreich thront. Sie gilt als eine der größten vollständig erhaltenen Burgen Europas und ist ein Wahrzeichen der Stadt. Die Geschichte der Festung reicht bis ins 11. Jahrhundert zurück, als sie von Erzbischof Gebhard von Helfenstein errichtet wurde. Im Laufe der Jahrhunderte wurde die Festung erweitert und verstärkt, um den Schutz der Stadt und der Erzbischöfe von Salzburg zu gewährleisten. Im Inneren der Festung gibt es eine Vielzahl von historischen Gebäuden, Höfen und Türmen, die besichtigt werden können. Ein absolutes Highlight der Festung Hohensalzburg ist die Festungsbahn, eine Standseilbahn, die Besucher bequem zur Festung hinaufführt. Von dort aus hat man einen atemberaubenden Blick auf die Stadt Salzburg und die umliegende Landschaft. Die Festung beherbergt auch mehrere Museen, darunter das Salzburg Museum und das Marionettentheatermuseum. Diese bieten interessante Einblicke in die Geschichte der Festung und der Stadt Salzburg. Heute ist die Festung Hohensalzburg ein beliebtes Touristenziel und wird regelmäßig für kulturelle Veranstaltungen wie Konzerte und Theateraufführungen genutzt. Ein Besuch der Festung bietet nicht nur historische Einblicke, sondern auch eine beeindruckende Aussicht und ein vielfältiges kulturelles Angebot.

Standtseilbahn

Die Festung Hohensalzburg ist über eine Standseilbahn mit der Stadt Salzburg verbunden. Die Standseilbahn, auch als Festungsbahn bekannt, ermöglicht es Besuchern, bequem zur Festung hinaufzufahren, da die Festung auf einem Hügel liegt und einen steilen Anstieg hat. Die Festungsbahn wurde bereits im Jahr 1892 eröffnet und ist somit eine der ältesten ihrer Art in Europa. Sie besteht aus zwei Wagen, die auf einer schrägen Strecke verkehren. Einer der Wagen befindet sich oben auf der Festung, während der andere unten am Fuße des Hügels startet. Die Wagen sind durch ein Zugseil verbunden, das von einem Antriebssystem betrieben wird. Die Fahrt mit der Festungsbahn bietet nicht nur einen bequemen Transport, sondern auch einen malerischen Ausblick auf die Stadt Salzburg und die umliegende Landschaft. Während der kurzen Fahrt können Besucher die steilen Hänge und die majestätische Festung bewundern. Die Festungsbahn ist eine beliebte Attraktion für Touristen, die die Festung Hohensalzburg besuchen möchten. Sie ermöglicht einen einfachen Zugang zur Festung, insbesondere für Besucher, die Schwierigkeiten beim Treppensteigen haben oder nicht den steilen Aufstieg zu Fuß bewältigen möchten. Es ist zu beachten, dass für die Fahrt mit der Festungsbahn eine separate Eintrittskarte erforderlich ist, die zusammen mit dem Eintritt zur Festung erworben werden kann.

Museen in der Festung Hohensalzburg

In der Festung Hohensalzburg, einer der größten vollständig erhaltenen Burgen Europas, gibt es mehrere interessante Museen, die besichtigt werden können. Hier sind einige davon:  1.

Marionettenmuseum: Das Marionettenmuseum bietet eine Sammlung von handgefertigten Marionetten und Bühnenbildern.

Montags unterhielt zunächst das Duo Banal, bevor als Highlight der Festausklang mit den einheimischen „Heddebörmer Musikanten“ mächtig gefeiert wurde. Ehrungen im Verlauf des Festes waren ein weiterer Höhepunkt. _Auch passive Mitglieder wurden geehrt.

Für beachtliche fünf Jahrzehnte als Musiker wurden Peter Süssenbach und Karlheinz Pföhler sowohl vom Verein als auch vom Vorsitzenden des Blasmusikverbandes Tauber-Odenwald-Bauland ausgezeichnet. „50 Jahre, das ist wirklich etwas ganz Besonderes“, so die einhellige Feststellung.

Die großartige Atmosphäre und beschwingte Musik seien Grund dafür, dass sich die Gäste so sehr auf das beliebte Musikfest freuen.

Der 101. Deutsche Katholikentag findet vom 9. bis zum 13. Mai 2018 in Münster statt. Gastgeber des Katholikentags ist das Zentralkomitee der deutschen Katholiken(ZdK) zusammen mit dem Bistum Münster. Der Katholikentag steht unter dem Motto: „Suche Frieden“. Nach 1852, 1885 und 1930 ist es der vierte Katholikentag in Münster.

Das Leitwort „Suche Frieden“ stellt einen Bezug zum Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs 1918 und zum Beginn des Dreißigjährigen Krieges 1618 her, der mit dem Westfälischen Frieden in Münster und Osnabrück 1648 beendet wurde. Es greift auch das Psalmwort (Ps 34 EU) auf (Vers 15: Meide das Böse und tu das Gute, suche Frieden und jage ihm nach!).

Am 13. Mai 2017 fand in Münster eine Vorabveranstaltung mit verschiedenen Chören und Sängern statt. Geschäftsführer der Vorbereitungsstelle ist seit dem 1. Dezember 2017 Roland Vilsmaier.

Bei dem größten Laientreffen der katholischen Kirche in Deutschland steht das Katholikentagsmotto «Suche Frieden» im Vordergrund. Über 1.200 Veranstaltungen finden in vier Tagen in der gesamten Innenstadt Münsters statt, unter anderem in der Halle Münsterland, Domplatz, am Aasee und am Schloss Münster. Es werden 50.000 Dauerteilnehmer aus ganz Deutschland und weitere 20.000 Tagesgäste erwartet. Einzelne Themenbereiche sind:

Themenbereich 1: „Gesellschaft und Politik“, mit einem Europatag unter dem Motto „Suche Frieden... Finde EUROPA!“

Themenbereich 2: „Kirche, Theologie, Religionen“, mit Veranstaltungen zu „Kirche und Theologie“, „Ökumene“ und „Dialog der Religionen“

„Lebenswelten“, mit Veranstaltungen zu „Bunte Lebenswelten“, „Kinder“, „Junge Menschen“, „Frauen und Männer“, „Partnerschaft“, „Familie“, „Generationen“

„Liturgiewerkstätten“, mit Veranstaltungen zu „Liturgie und Frieden“, „Liturgie und Medien“ und „Liturgie in größeren Seelsorgeeinheiten“

„Bibel und Spiritualität“, mit Gesprächskreisen zu Glaubens- und Lebensfragen, Beratungs-, Begleit- oder Beichtgesprächen

„Kultur“ mit zahlreichen kulturellen Veranstaltungen, wie dem Arab Jewish Orchestra aus Israel

„Kirchenmeile“ mit mehr als 350 Informations- und Begegnungsangeboten der katholischen Kirche

Die feierliche Eröffnung auf dem Domplatz in Münster fand am 9. Mai 2018 statt, umrahmt von Vor- und Nachprogrammen. Bundespräsident Frank-Walter Steinmeier, Ministerpräsident Armin Laschet, ZdK-Präsident Thomas Sternberg und der Bischof von Münster, Felix Genn, sowie Notburga Heveling, Vorsitzende des Diözesankomitees der Katholiken, richteten Begrüßungsworte an die etwa 12.000 Besucher.

Am 10. Mai 2018 fand ein Großgottesdienst zum Hochfest Christi Himmelfahrt auf dem Schlossplatz statt. Am Freitag, 11. Mai 2018, wurde zu einem zentralen Ökumenischen Gottesdienst im St.-Paulus-Dom eingeladen. Der Katholikentag endet am Sonntag, 13. Mai 2018, mit einem Hauptgottesdienst unter der Leitung von Reinhard Kardinal Marx, dem Vorsitzenden der Deutschen Bischofskonferenz, auf dem Münsteraner Schlossplatz.

Als Besucher und Teilnehmer des Programms des Katholikentags haben sich offiziell angemeldet:

Angela Merkel, Bundeskanzlerin

Juan Manuel Santos, kolumbianischer Staatspräsident und Friedensnobelpreisträger

die Bundesminister Horst Seehofer, Julia Klöckner, Jens Spahn, Monika Grütters, Katarina Barley, Franziska Giffey und Hubertus Heil

Kritik an der Kirchentagsfinanzierung im öffentlichem Raum

Von verschiedenen Gruppen – unter anderem vom Humanistischen Pressedienst – wird kritisiert, dass der Katholikentag als religiöse Veranstaltung zu einem erheblichen Teil mit öffentlichen Mitteln finanziert wird. So wurden vom ZdK Leistungen zuvor beantragt. Sachleistungen in Höhe von 982.000 Euro sind von der Stadt vorgesehen, obwohl die Stadt über 800 Millionen Euro Schulden habe. Vom Land Nordrhein-Westfalen werden 1,6 Millionen Euro getragen sowie vom Bund 400.000 Euro.

Why a 2,500-year-old Hebrew poem still matters

http://bit.ly/2w5w4dS

Gebhard Fugel, 'An den Wassern Babylons.' Gebhard Fugel [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons

At sundown on July 31, Jews around the world will observe Tisha B’av, the most somber of Jewish holidays. It commemorates the destruction of the two temples in Jerusalem, first by the Babylonians and then, almost seven centuries later, in A.D. 70, by the Romans.

Jews will remember these two historic calamities along with many others, including their slaughter during the First Crusade; the expulsions from England, France and Spain; and the Holocaust.

The pattern of forced migration was set by the Babylonian conquest of 587-586 B.C., when the elite of Judah were marched to Babylon and the temple destroyed. Like the story of Moses and the Exodus from Egypt, which happened several centuries earlier, the Babylonian exile dwells at the heart of Judaism. The trauma served as a crucible, forcing the Israelites to rethink their relationship to Yahweh, reassess their standing as a chosen people and rewrite their history.

Psalm 137, the subject of my most recent book, “Song of Exile,” is a 2,500-year-old Hebrew poem that deals with the exile that will be remembered on Tisha B'av. It has long served as an uplifting historical analogy for a variety of oppressed and subjugated groups, including African-Americans.

Origins of the psalm

Psalm 137 is only one out of 150 psalms in the Bible to be set in a particular time and place. Its nine verses paint a scene of captives mourning “by the rivers of Babylon,” mocked by their captors. It expresses a vow to remember Jerusalem even in exile, and closes with fantasies of vengeance against the oppressors.

Psalm 137 in 12th-century Eadwine Psalter. By Anonymous (Fitzmuseum) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons

The exile story, which echoes through the Bible, is central to the major prophets Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Lamentations and Isaiah. And the aftermath of exile, when Cyrus the Great conquered Babylon and allowed the Judeans to return to Israel, is narrated in books of Ezra and Nehemiah. Bible scholar Rainer Albertz estimates that “about 70 percent of the Hebrew Bible tackles the questions of how the catastrophe of exile was possible and what Israel can learn from it.”

Inspiring music

Because the psalm deals with music – a famous verse asks, “How could we sing the Lord’s song in a foreign land?” – it has been like “poetic catnip,” intriguing to musicians and composers. Bach, Dvorak and Verdi all wrote musical settings for it. Verdi’s first popular opera, “Nabucco,” retells the story of the captivity.

Popular music versions have been recorded by American singer and songwriter Don McLean (and used in a memorable scene in “Mad Men”). It has featured in the musical “Godspell.” Dozens of artists have recorded their own version of “Rivers of Babylon.” This includes a Rastafarian-tinged version by the Jamaican group the Melodians and a version by Boney M that became a blockbuster disco hit in 1978.

Message for social justice

The psalm has also inspired numerous political leaders and social movements, and immigrants as varied as Irish and Korean have identified with the story.

America’s first homegrown composer, William Billings, who lived during the War of Independence, created an anthem that puts Bostonians in the role of oppressed Judeans and the British oppressors in the role of Babylonians. “By the Rivers of Watertown we sat down and wept when we remember’d thee O Boston….”

On the anniversary of America’s independence, the abolitionist leader Frederick Douglass made the psalm the centerpiece of his most famous speech, “What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?”

Douglass told the audience at Corinthian Hall in Rochester, New York, on July 5, 1852, that for a free black like himself, being expected to celebrate American independence was akin to the Judean captives being mockingly coerced to perform songs in praise of Jerusalem.

About 100 years later, in the wake of World War II, the dissident actor and singer Paul Robeson saw deep parallels between the plight of Jews and African-Americans and loved to perform Dvorak’s setting of the psalm.

Some of the most celebrated African-American preachers, including C. L. Franklin of Detroit (Aretha Franklin’s father), also preached on the psalm. In Franklin’s case, he answered the psalm’s central question of whether to sing with a resounding yes. So did Jeremiah Wright, who was Barack Obama’s pastor when he lived in Chicago.

Valuing the act of remembrance

So, what is the central message of the psalm for today’s world?

The problem of what to remember, what to forgive and how to achieve justice has never been more vexing.

By the original rivers of Babylon, now war-torn regions of Iraq and Syria devastated by the Islamic State, stories emerge of captives taking refuge in the river. The forced migration of millions of people from the region, mainly from Syria, is having worldwide consequences. These include helping the rise of anti-immigration populism across Europe and in the United States.

Meanwhile, Bible scholars are working to interpret a trove of recently discovered cuneiform tablets that give a more nuanced picture of what life was really like in Babylon for the Judean exiles. And rightly so. For in the midst of all the injustices that confront us every time we check news headlines, remembering is as crucial as forgiving.

That was Frederick Douglass’ point as well. He said of his enslaved compatriots,

“If I do forget, if I do not faithfully remember those bleeding children of sorrow this day, ‘may my right hand forget her cunning, and may my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth!’”

Remembering their history is what many Jews worldwide will do when they observe Tisha B’av. And that is the message of Psalm 137 as well. It captures succinctly the ways people come to grips with trauma: turning inward and venting their rage.

There is a reason the psalm continues to resonate with people, even today.

Gasteig Cultural Center in Munich

23 June 2021

Gasteig Cultural Center

Design: HENN

Location: Munich, Germany

The Gasteig in Munich, the largest cultural center in Europe, receives almost two million visitors a year and houses a unique combination of programs: a concert hall, an auditorium, educational facilities, and a public library. Constructed in 1985, the original Gasteig is a fortress-like compound of introverted functions. HENN’s for the Gasteig Cultural Center proposal transforms it into an open and democractic space whose cultural and educational programs are part of a dynamic exchange—with each other and with the city.

The heart of the New Gasteig is the Kulturbühne or Culture Stage—a bridge-like glass volume that connects the many functions of the center and displays their vibrant interior to the city of Munich. Its transparent and open architecture stands in deliberate contrast to the monolithic character of the existing building.

The Culture Stage functions as circulation, foyer, exhibition space and event area, a new space of encounter and connection. With this simple, yet radical gesture, HENN has transformed the Gasteig from an inert container of culture into an active collaborator—it is a space of cultural production where employees, students, and visitors are all actors on the Cultural Stage.

Each program—the Philharmonic, the Carl Orff Hall, the Munich City Library, the Munich Center of Further Education and the University of Music and Performing Arts—underwent its own transformation. In collaboration with the renowned acoustician Yasuhisa Toyota, the Philharmonic was given a complete acoustic re-design while the library, constructed during the height of print media, was updated for the digital age, its closed-off, silent spaces were opened up and its collaborative spaces emphasized.

HENN’s modernization of the cultural center is a radical reconceptualization of the building and the role of culture within the city. Now more than ever, we understand and appreciate the power of art, music, literature, and education to reflect and elevate society during moments of prosperity, and to comfort and stabilize during times of hardship. The New Gasteig—open, transparent, and inviting—anticipates a future where it will once again receive millions of annual visitors

Why on July 4 should we remember the psalm 'By the Rivers of Babylon'?

http://bit.ly/2vHqzzA

What is the meaning of the 2,500-year old Hebrew psalm for oppressed groups? Gebhard Fugel [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons

On the anniversary of America’s independence, the abolitionist leader Frederick Douglass made a biblical Psalm – Psalm 137 – best known for its opening line, “By the Rivers of Babylon,” a centerpiece of his most famous speech, “What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?”.

Douglass told the audience at Corinthian Hall in Rochester, New York, on July 5, 1852, that for a free black like himself, being expected to celebrate American independence was akin to the Judean captives being mockingly coerced to perform songs in praise of Jerusalem.

Not only did it inspire the famous abolitionist; this 2,500-year-old Hebrew psalm has long served as an uplifting historical analogy for a variety of oppressed and subjugated groups, including African Americans.

Origins of the psalm

Psalm 137, the subject of my most recent book, “Song of Exile,” is unique in the Bible. The only one out of 150 psalms to be set in a particular time and place, it relates to the Babylonian Exile – the period between 587-586 B.C. in Israel’s history, when Jews were taken captive in Babylon and the Jerusalem temple was destroyed.

Its nine verses paint a scene of captives mourning “by the rivers of Babylon,” mocked by their captors. It expresses a vow to remember Jerusalem even in exile, and closes with fantasies of vengeance against the oppressors. The Babylonian exile served as a crucible, forcing the Israelites to rethink their relationship to Yahweh, reassess their standing as a chosen people and rewrite their history.

The exile story, which echoes through the Bible, is central to the major prophets, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Lamentations and Isaiah. And the aftermath of exile, when Cyrus the Great conquered Babylon and allowed the Judeans to return to Israel, is narrated in books of Ezra and Nehemiah. Bible scholar Rainer Albertz estimates that “about 70 percent of the Hebrew Bible tackles the questions of how the catastrophe of exile was possible and what Israel can learn from it.”

Inspiring music

Because the psalm deals with music – a famous verse asks, “How could we sing the Lord’s song in a foreign land?” – it has been like “poetic catnip” – intriguing to musicians and composers. Bach, Dvorak and Verdi all wrote musical settings for it. Verdi’s first popular opera, “Nabucco,” retells the story of the captivity.

Popular music versions have been recorded by American singer and songwriter Don McLean (and used in a memorable scene in “Mad Men”). It has been used by the musical “Godspell.” Dozens of artists have recorded their own version of “Rivers of Babylon.” This includes a Rastafarian-tinged version by the Jamaican group the Melodians and a version by Boney M that became a blockbuster disco hit in 1978.

Message for social justice

The psalm has also inspired numerous political leaders and social movements, and immigrants as varied as Irish and Korean have identified with the story.

Frederick Douglass, of course, claimed the message of the psalm for enslaved African Americans.

In the wake of World War II, the dissident actor and singer Paul Robeson saw deep parallels between the plight of Jews and African Americans and loved to perform Dvorak’s setting of the psalm.

Some of the most celebrated African-American preachers, including C. L. Franklin of Detroit (Aretha Franklin’s father), also preached on the psalm. C.L. Franklin answered the psalm’s central question of whether to sing with a resounding yes. So did Jeremiah Wright, who was Barack Obama’s pastor when he lived in Chicago.

Valuing the act of remembrance

So, what is the central message of the psalm for today’s world?

The problem of what to remember, what to forgive and how to achieve justice has never been more vexing. By the original rivers of Babylon, now war-torn regions of Iraq and Syria devastated by the Islamic State, stories emerge of captives taking refuge in the river. The forced migration of millions of people from the region, mainly from Syria, is having worldwide consequences.

That was Frederick Douglass’ point as well. He said of his enslaved compatriots,

“If I do forget, if I do not faithfully remember those bleeding children of sorrow this day, ‘may my right hand forget her cunning, and may my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth!’”

Remembering their history is what many Jews worldwide will do when at sundown on July 31, they observe Tisha B’av, the most somber of Jewish holidays. It commemorates the destruction of the two temples in Jerusalem, first by the Babylonians and centuries later by the Romans. Jews will reflect on these two historic calamities along with many others.

And that is the message of Psalm 137 as well. It captures succinctly the ways people come to grips with trauma: disbelief, turning inward and venting their rage. There is a reason it continues to resonate with people.
