Venue Type
An evening between court cuisine, timbre, and King Ludwig II.
In the Knights' Hall of Kempfenhausen Castle in Berg, a literary evening of special intensity unfolds on June 12, 2026: The reading from King Ludwig II. dines leads into the memory world of court chef Theodor Hierneis and thus right into the fascinating proximity of power, myth, and everyday observation at the Bavarian royal court.
Literature with historical pull
This event combines reading and musical accompaniment into a cultural evening that not only sheds new light on the fairy-tale king Ludwig II but also makes visible the perspective of a contemporary witness. Klaus Wittmann reads with lively linguistic artistry from the work, while Rainer Gruber atmospherically condenses the events on the accordion. This creates a literary experience that sensitively intertwines historical memory and the present.
The view behind the courtly curtain
Particularly intriguing is the narrative stance of the text: Here speaks not a distant chronicler, but a man close to the court who reports on food, scene, and mood. It is precisely this perspective that gives the reading depth. Anyone interested in King Ludwig II, Bavarian cultural history, and narrative memoirs will experience an author encounter in the broader sense here – with a voice from a past world that still resonates today.
Music, space, and reading atmosphere
The Knights' Hall of Kempfenhausen Castle provides the perfect setting for this. The historical ambience, the intimate reading atmosphere, and the combination of language and music generate that quiet tension that characterizes good literary evenings. The evening appeals not only to the mind and knowledge but also to mood, memory, and imagination.
Conclusion: A date for literature lovers and Bavaria enthusiasts
Anyone excited about historical readings, cultural memory spaces, and the mysterious figure of Ludwig II should mark this date. The event promises a cleverly staged, entertaining, and at the same time knowledgeable evening – live on site, with literature, music, and a special place by Lake Starnberg.
