Our project lives through the people who participate in it. On this page we introduce you to the visitors who are involved in the creation of this audio guide. They took part in interviews and produced short audio texts, which you can only hear in the German version of the guide.

When our Creative Writing lecturer, Martina Hanke, presented the project to us, I was immediately excited because I love the museum so much. I take every visitor here. I think it is lovingly put together and also means home to me. So it was clear for me to participate.

I think that you should not always just consume, but also try to get involved. I think it's good to do that where it's possible with one's own means and abilities.

What we liked most was that you could choose a certain object yourself. This allowed us to follow our interests, focus on a theme and become absorbed in it. We were most enthusiastic about the „Flett“ and the old farmhouse.

There was a small notice in the newspaper about the workshop and I felt like being creative again in a completely different way, away from everyday life. I spontaneously signed up and when I got the feedback, I was very happy.

Before we chose an object, we were able to take part in a very interesting guided tour. This helped us to get to know the various themes the museum focuses on. When we saw the paintings, it was immediately clear to us that we wanted to do something about them.

Our writing trainer from the "Creative Writing Group" motivated us to participate. The exciting thing was to choose one of the many beautiful exhibits that touched us and to which we had something to say.

It was great to be able to look behind the scenes and create something that is then really listened to and available in the museum for everyone. The task was doable and fun.

We thought it was exciting that we didn't have any specifications and could be creative. Historical facts did not have to be mentioned, instead our personal idea was important.

It was very cool that we had so much creative freedom and could decide for ourselves which object we wanted to work on, and whether we wanted to write a text or produce an interview.

My curiosity motivated me to participate in the project. I heard about the project through my work on the museum association's board and wanted to know how it was going to be implemented.

I read about the project in the newspaper. It's about being addressed personally by an object in the exhibition. I thought I could do that, and that's why I joined the project.

For us, the connection to the trowel was immediately clear, as we want to work in this field later. We think it's great that they involve the students in such big projects, which also makes the topics more accessible for us.

Our motivation to participate in the project was to make our mark in the museum and create something lasting.

The idea of involving Celle residents in the media guide in this way appealed to me right away. I appreciate the interactive approach and am pleased that I could support it with impulses from creative writing. The communication of history through stories thus becomes more vivid for guests.

My motivation was my historical interest. I had been to the Bomann Museum before, but had little memory of the objects. So I also thought I could refresh my knowledge about the museum. I thought it was good to contribute to the museum because history as a cultural asset should also be passed on to other generations.
Out of consideration for other visitors, please use headphones during your visit to the museum.
Thank you!
