Border*experiences: Experience the Green Band with new eyes

By bicycle along German history

A 1,400-kilometer bike tour along the former German-German border becomes an impressive discovery experience in Aalen: The multivision show Border*experiences – along the green band combines moving contemporary history, nature observation, and authentic travel images.

The Green Band as a lifeline

Where once the inner-German border strip separated people, today the Green Band stretches as the longest biotope network in Germany. The image presentation shows this special memory space as a landscape of change: former border locations, quiet natural areas, and paths that tell stories of German division and reunification.

A bike tour between nature and memory

The journey leads along the former border and makes it tangible how closely local history, cultural heritage, and nature conservation are interconnected. Large-format images open perspectives on a landscape where history is tangible and nature serves as a living archive. The audience discovers a region that today invites encounters between East and West and special bike tours.

Multivision with travel inspiration

The event is aimed at everyone interested in bike tours, German history, landscape experiences, and sustainable travel. The impressive presentation provides inspiration for personal discoveries and shows how an erstwhile death strip became a green lifeline of high ecological and historical significance.

Conclusion: Experience history on two wheels

Border*experiences offers a powerful view of Germany's past and present. Look forward to a cultural enrichment, inspiring travel images, and an extraordinary connection of bike tour, nature, and memory culture. Admission is free – secure your spot at the Bürgerspital meeting place in Aalen.
