Our Photo-Spürnasen have picked up a new trail: it leads directly into the fascinating visual world of August Sander! He is famous for his portraits of a wide range of people, such as farming families in the countryside, craftspeople, students or artists. He has also photographed the city of Cologne as it looked in the past. And which carnival costumes were worn in the 1920s is shown by his portraits taken at artists' festivals. So together we set off on an exciting journey through time, discover people, places and stories from long-gone times, and solve tricky search tasks. Anyone who looks closely finds astonishing things – and in the end becomes creative themselves!
We recommend purchasing online tickets.
