Fireplace picnic Harkotten Manor

Fireside picnic in the Coat of Arms Hall

The Harkotten manor house in Sassenberg invited guests to a cosy reading with music by the open fire in the old heraldic hall on 26 January 2023. The Harkotten manor house is still owned by the von Korff family today. The origin of the entire complex can be traced back to the 13th century. Nowadays, breakfast or coffee and cake can be enjoyed in the heraldic hall with its own restaurant in the former cowshed. However, an evening with a picnic by the open fire was the exception and thus a special event! We look back on a successful evening with lots of fun!

Pieces of heart in Münsterland in word and sound!

The guests were able to enjoy this cultural programme:

  • Presentation of the book "Herzstücke im Münsterland - Besonderes abseits der bekannten Wege entdecken": 100 places and phenomena across all 4 Münsterland districts and the city of Münster.
  • Reading of individual sections, anecdotes and special Münsterland luck stories alternate with fairytale-like tales of folk tales, myths and songs
  • Musical accompaniment (mystical, Westphalian ballad singing)

These people provided entertainment

  • Gudrun Gunia, musician, storyteller, balladeer
  • Hartwig Homann-Sommerhage, tour guide and speaker
  • Freddy Thalmann (technology)

Based on a concept by the author Marta Latour (stage name of Martje Thalmann, who is also known as the Türmerin von Münster ).
