For ten years the Erdinger advent calendar has stood for culture and encounters.

This year there is again an enchanting program that wants to set a point of light.

Erding - It was an enchanting idea that the Katholisches Bildungswerk (KBW) launched ten years ago and which is still relevant today: the Erdinger advent calendar "Auf Weihnacht'n zua".

For the big birthday there are 24 small events this year, which are intended to make Advent tangible with all senses and set points of light, as KBW Managing Director Hans-Otto Seitschek emphasized at the program presentation.

It took place in the Steel Museum, where its director, Heike Kronseder, served a chocolate-walnut cake with buttercream topping with the coffee, on which the flyer was visually immortalized: in the form of an edible wafer.

Together with Carina Dollberger (KBW) and Sandra Angermaier (district association for homeland protection and monument preservation), Kronseder has put together a multifaceted program that she herself enjoys very much.

This joy also reaches the visitors of the half-hour events, which usually start at 4 p.m.

Contribution: four euros each.

The prayer on December 22nd in the parish church is an exception to this.

The season ticket costs 24 euros.

The KBW asks for registrations by phone (0 81 22) 16 06 or by e-mail to info@kbw-erding.de.

At the start on Thursday, December 1, Kronseder, Dollberger and Angermaier will talk about Advent, the time of expectation, over cake and punch in the Steel Museum.

On Friday, December 2nd, there will be an art walk with Harry Seeholzer in the city park.

There will also be two tours of the church – on December 5th in the Heilig-Geist-Kircherl and on December 9th in St. Paul – and a tour of the district (December 12th with Doris Bauer).

There will also be weights (December 14 in the Widnmann garden pavilion), handicrafts (December 13/15 in the Steel Museum), reading (December 6 with Silke Hörold-Ries in the city library) and music.

The harp concert by Barbara Poeschl-Edrich, which can be experienced this year on Wednesday, December 7th, in the Heilig-Geist-Kircherl, is popular.

In between, they are encouraged to think of each other and to write a handwritten card to a loved one.

Angermaier gives suggestions for Christmas decorations at home (December 8).

There in the garden on December 21, the rough nights are also smoked.

On December 16, the Galerie Reiter will open its doors.

Treasures are taken from the depot at the Erding Museum (December 19).

On December 20th, the mosque of the Islamic Community in Erding will be visited and the importance of angels in Islam will be discussed.

The program also contains tips on where to go: on December 3rd to the Nikolausmarkt in Wartenberg, on December 11th to the Liedertafel Erding in the Frauenkircherl.

on December 18th for the living crib (5 p.m.) and on Christmas Eve for the tower blowing on the Schrannenplatz (start: 5 p.m.).

"We want to be close to people who feel darkness and loneliness," emphasized Seitschek.

Mayor Max Gotz described the advent calendar, of which he is the patron, as a “wonderful tradition with considerable visitor numbers, even during the pandemic”.

This is how single people experienced community.

The organizers find out how good this is for many in discussions, but also in letters that reach them.

"The advent calendar means Christmas to me," wrote one participant, Angermaier said, touched: "Then you know what a deep meaning the advent calendar has."

Even the peak of the pandemic in 2020 has been mastered.

The KBW spontaneously decided on a mailing campaign and sent letters to up to 50 interested parties - with texts, songs or handicraft instructions.

"We made a lot of people happy with that," Seitschek looked back.

For the tenth anniversary there is also the companion book to the series, which has lost none of its topicality.

It is available for a donation at the KBW and the Steel Museum.
