History Alive, Not Dusty

The tour begins exactly where Braunschweig's past becomes particularly tangible: at the Residenzschloss and in the museum that tells the varied history of the place. The Castle Museum describes its permanent exhibition as an access point to the history of the Braunschweig Castle and the splendid life at court. For the castle walk, this means: no dry lecture, but an event experience with a historical ambiance and a clear target group address for all who want to experience city history in its original location.

Diversity as a Common Theme

According to the event description, the focus is on Flemish settlers, English princesses, French religious refugees, and the remarkable career of the first Black professor at a German university. This very mix makes the date interesting: The walk connects migration, power, culture, and identity into a compact, easily understandable narrative about Braunschweig's development over centuries.
