Das Erdreich

In the organizer's words:

Immerse yourself in Das Erdreich - a theatrical bus trip to the Rhenish lignite mining area. In Bürgewald, on the edge of the Hambach open-cast mine, decay becomes a creative force. Between researchers, residents and a mysterious fungus, a world unfolds in which new things grow from collapse. An immersive expedition into the hidden world beneath our feet.

Departure point: Universitätsstraße 16 / corner of Enrique-Schmidt-Cuadra-Weg, 50937 Cologne
