She is an outstanding personality in German sport. She was crowned German champion five times, came second and third in the European Championships six times and in 1990 she was runner-up in the World Championships, having previously come third twice. An impressive list of titles and successes, which is remarkable in that they were collected in two different sports.
Marina Kielmann started figure skating as a four-year-old in the care of her mother. She was just thirteen when she became German vice-champion in pairs skating. At nineteen, she came fourth at both the World and European Championships - in roller figure skating. From then on, she was one of the best in the world, both on roller skates and ice skates. On the latter, she took part in the Winter Olympics twice, in 1988 and 1992.
Last summer she was "on the road", at the Baltic Sea, where she gave her thoughts "free rein" during long walks, before sorting them out and finally making them public. In conversation with museum director Andreas Höfer, Marina Kielmann will present her recently published book on May 15 at 7 p.m., which contains many positive memories of a great career, but also includes sporting and personal disappointments.
