Freier Eintritt im Schillerhaus
In the organizer's words:
In the 18th century, the village of Gohlis was an excursion destination and summer retreat for the people of Leipzig, who appreciated an informal experience of nature and intellectual exchange.
The 25-year-old Friedrich Schiller also spent carefree summer weeks here in 1785. After a period of oppressive worries, he encountered friendship, recognition and active support from kindred spirits in Gohlis. All at once, the young poet's previously gloomy world seemed to be bathed in radiant light. It was here that the joy of new perspectives inspired him to write his song "An die Freude" (To Joy) , his most popular verses to this day.
In the exhibition, you will learn about the hardships and joie de vivre of an ordinary young man, trace the career of his most famous verses and find out why this place of remembrance owes its existence to a revolutionary from 1848.
