Events 2012

Braunschweig can be proud of its cultural scene. Besides the Staatstheater, private theatre companies also stage first-rate performances, while  contemporary art is put on display by organisations ranging from small groups of artists to its Art Society. The range of cultural activities is rounded off by the numerous museums, which stage exhibitions showing the work of artists from bygone years or bring the past to life with memorable exhibits. Working together closely, they guarantee that these exclusive events will be an unforgettable experience for everyone who attends.
