Europäischer Denkmaltag: «In Gefahr?» – Junge Ideen für das Welterbe
Overview
Intro
A murder mystery dinner, art exhibition, and escape game about the climate crisis and World Heritage: Claudia Grünberg will present the “Young Climate Action for World Heritage” project in the Knights’ Hall. Admission is free.
Young Ideas for an Endangered Heritage
In 2026, European Heritage Days across Switzerland will be held under the theme “In Danger?”—asking what threatens our cultural heritage and how we can protect it. Young people have provided one of the most creative answers to this question: As part of the “Young Climate Action for World Heritage” educational project by the Institute for Heritage Studies (Berlin), carried out in collaboration with the German Commission for UNESCO, young people at six World Heritage sites developed their own educational formats addressing the climate crisis—a murder mystery dinner, an art exhibition, and an escape game.
Project director Claudia Grünberg is traveling all the way from Berlin to Thun for this event. She’ll showcase the formats they created, share the most important “lessons learned”—and explain how young people here can also actively contribute to World Heritage and climate protection. The workshop in between will focus on getting everyone thinking: What is “at risk” here—and what ideas do we have of our own?
