Reading between workshops, paths, and memory: Wind, Paper and Iron
With INDUSTRIEKULTUR literary | Wind, Paper and Iron, an evening unfolds in the Silberquelle that transforms Braunschweig's industrial memory culture into a lively reading atmosphere. On June 23, 2026, the Forum Industriekultur e.V. presents various texts from the annual edition in an illustrated reading, connecting literary reflection with regional history.
Industrial culture as a narrative resonance space
The evening leads directly into those narrative spaces where the history of technology, landscape, and social experience intersect. The texts inquire about publishing families, mills, test tracks, and marshy traces of progress. This creates a literary experience that not only informs but sharpens the relationship between city, work, and memory.
Lecture, reading, and firsthand conversations
The focus is on an illustrated reading with the authors of the edition. They will then answer questions about their areas of expertise, thereby providing insight into their research, perspectives, and historical references. It is precisely this combination of reading, conversation, and cultural discourse that makes the evening appealing.
The Silberquelle as a fitting place for literature with character
The Silberquelle at Kalenwall carries its own city history in its architecture and atmosphere. As a small, characterful pavilion, it offers an intimate setting where language art and audience come close together. The literary quality of the format gains additional depth here through the place: history is not only told but felt.
Conclusion: An evening for explorers of regional literature and industrial culture
Those interested in Braunschweig's history, essayistic perspectives, and literary-concentrated industrial culture will experience an evening of insight and atmosphere. Admission is free, and the start is at 6 PM. This event invites you to experience literature as a live access to city history.
