The Heimattag, which is once again meeting in Bamberg after 1997, will not only take stock of how the term “Heimat” is presented in the content and programs of the various media, but also how the associations united under the umbrella of the Bavarian Heimattag can use the media for their work.
The aim of the Bavarian Heritage Day is to research, preserve and further develop both the natural environment and the culture of Bavaria in its tradition, diversity and uniqueness. The working group wants to preserve the traditional living space in all Bavarian regions, create quality of life and, above all, establish an identity between the people and their homeland. With its affiliated associations and institutions, the Bayerischer Heimattag represents the interests of well over half a million people.

The monastery landscape of the Cistercians of Zwettl is one of the best-preserved examples of a monastery landscape in the whole of Europe. Characteristic elements such as granges (farmyards) and ponds still shape its appearance today.
Some Cistercian monastic landscapes have been awarded the European Heritage Label since April 2024.
The Cisterscapes project partners Vyšší Brod in South Bohemia, Zwettl in the Waldviertel and Žďár nad Sázavou in the Visočina region are working particularly closely together as part of the Interreg project “ATCZ00007 – CISTERSCAPES VB-Zw-ZnS”.
Visitor centers are being built at all four project locations, which will provide information about the international Cisterscapes project, the European Heritage Label, the Cistercian monastery landscapes and the four Interreg partners and their cooperation.
The exhibition at the Zwettl visitor center is dedicated to the traces left by the Cistercian monks in the monastery landscape. The focus is also on regional products such as carp, beer and poppy seeds as well as Waldviertel pond farming.
Program:
5.00 pm: Opening ceremony in the passage of the Old Town Hall, speeches with musical accompaniment and agape
6.00 pm: Guided tour with the curators through the exhibition in the new visitor center
Accompanying activities:

Round trip in the carp carriage
“Fishing up close – right in the middle instead of just being there” – experience with VR glasses
Activity stations with puzzles, games and escape

This project is funded by the Interreg Austria-Czech Republic program under the project title “ATCZ00007 CISTERSCAPES VB-Zw-ZnS”.

Ebracher Musiksommer: Baroque Virtuosos
2026-06-28 15:00 - 17:00 | Kaisersaal, former abbey, Ebrach, Marketplace 1, Ebrach, Choose federal state:, 96157, Germany
Baroque Virtuoso
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)
Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D major BWV 1068
Concerto for violin, oboe and orchestra in C minor BWV 1060R
Concerto for two violins and orchestra in D minor BWV 1043
George Frideric Handel (1685-1759)
Water Music, Suite II in D major
Orchestra with Gewandhaus musicians Leipzig
Gerd Schaller, conductor
Festive baroque music in the Kaisersaal with works by Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel has always been very popular. When musicians from the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra also perform this concert, the crowds are particularly large. Experience has shown that the Leipzig orchestra’s traditional guest performance as part of the Ebrach Summer of Music sells out quickly – so it’s worth booking your tickets early!
Under the title VIRTUOSES BAROQUE, the program this time features true gems of the Baroque repertoire, with the solo concertos presented promising a very special treat for the ears. Johann Sebastian Bach’s Orchestral Suite No. 3 offers particularly festive sounds, and the famous Air from it is one of Bach’s best-known works. His concerto for violin and oboe is often regarded as an adaptation of Bach’s earlier harpsichord concerto, with the violin and oboe taking on the role of the harpsichord. In the concerto for two violins, on the other hand, the two soloists enter into an exciting competition. The program is rounded off by the D major suite from Handel’s Water Music, which revives the former splendour of a royal river journey. A musical treat that is guaranteed to delight!
Subject to change without notice.

Gate in the evening - Curriculum of silence
2026-07-03 18:00 - 20:00 | Besucherzentrum der Stiftung Schulpforta, Schulstraße 26, Naumburg OT Bad Kösen, Sachsen-Anhalt, 06628, Germany
Towards the end of the day, the school grounds become quieter. This is the best opportunity to explore the original use of the historic building ensemble. The spiritual life of the monks followed strict rules and the pupils also lived in the past in an extremely narrow and demanding curriculum.
Silence and stillness were a divine commandment for the monks. They used hand signals to communicate the bare essentials. These were compiled in the so-called signa lists. This exciting source of Cistercian life will also be the subject of this guided tour.
Ticket: 12 € / incl. 1 glass of wine
