On its history study tour through Poland, the Hohenschwangau Gymnasium just stopped in Kreisau/Krzyżowa from 17.7. - 19.7.2022 to immerse itself in the history of the place and, in particular, to learn more about the resistance group "Kreisau Circle".
The program included a historical tour of the site and workshops on the resistance group, in which the participants dealt with the personalities as well as the views and goals of the Circle. The students, aged between 17 and 18, were very engaged in preparing the talk show "A Look into the Past": they slipped into the role of several Kreisau Circle members, who were greeted and interviewed by a moderation team. They also investigated how the Circle distinguished itself from the N.S., and what references there are between the documents and the Basic Law of the FRG.

Krzyżowa-Music is the International Chamber Music Festival for future generations.
It is organised every year in Krzyżowa, a place that symbolises like no other the desire for peaceful European integration, exchange and culture. Every summer, master-class music workshops with a festival character take place here.
World-renowned musicians and promising classical music talents under the artistic direction of Viviane Hagner come together for joint playing of music and intergenerational exchange. The Krzyżowa-Music Seniors and Juniors will present the results of their cooperation during concerts taking place in Lower Silesia: in Krzyżowa, Wrocław, Szczawno-Zdrój, Jawor and Grodziszcze.
This year, when a peaceful Europe is more threatened than ever, the festival focuses on an important part of that strength: music and culture.
