Archaeological Journey Through Time at the Blue House: Dießen Rediscovering Its Past

With Seven Times Dießen - Lecture Series for the Anniversary Year 2026, an evening that intelligently connects local history, archaeology, and cultural memory takes center stage. On September 30, 2026, Dr. Bernd Steidl will speak at the Culture Forum Blue House about Archaeology in Dießen and around Lake Ammer, thereby opening a well-founded trace search through millennia.

A lecture that goes beneath the surface of Dießen's history

The event does not start with legend but with findings: burial mounds, Celtic square fortifications, and early medieval ring wall structures tell of a landscape that has always been inhabited. It is precisely this archaeological perspective that gives the evening its special literary and scientific density. Those interested in regional history, monument preservation, and cultural memory will experience a reading of insight - precise, vivid, and close to historical reality.

Dr. Bernd Steidl as a knowledgeable storyteller of the Roman period

Dr. Bernd Steidl heads the Roman Period Department at the Bavarian State Collection of Archaeology in Munich and is also the district heritage officer in the field of archaeological monuments for the Landsberg am Lech district. His expertise combines research, communication, and public cultural work. This is exactly where the lecture gains its authority: from individual sites, a larger context emerges, from archaeological traces a picture of the southern Ammersee region over long periods.
