The Kulturelle Landpartie (full name: Kulturelle Landpartie - Wunde.r.points in Wendland ) is a twelve-day cultural event in the Lüchow-Dannenberg district . It has taken place annually since 1989 between Ascension Day and Pentecost and has its roots in the political resistance against the Gorleben nuclear waste storage facility .

description

At the cultural event, residents open their barns, (former) stables or courtyards for artists and artisans so that they can present a wide range of cultural activities. The offer includes paintings, sculptures, drawings, sculptures, photos, jewelry as well as a large number of works made of ceramics, glass, wood, textiles, felt, leather and metal. The works are carried out as simple, sometimes almost forgotten handicraft techniques up to avant-garde art.

In over 90 villages, more than 820 artists are involved in a good 120 exhibition and event points (as of 2015). The Kulturelle Landpartie is the largest exhibition cycle of its kind in Germany. It is accompanied by a comprehensive cultural program with around 680 events from the fields of music, theater, ecology, cabaret, performance, sound art and dance as well as readings, guided tours and lectures. The event is known far beyond the borders of the Lüchow-Dannenberg district and has around 60,000 visitors annually. At the same time, the Mützingenta takes place in Mützingen , which used to be part of the cultural country party.
