Culture Under the Church Tower: Music, Literature, and Encounter in Neumühl
When the doors of the Gnadenkirche Neumühl open on November 8, 2026, the church space will once again transform into a vibrant cultural stage. The fourth edition of Culture Under the Church Tower combines concert, reading, and personal encounters into a diverse Sunday afternoon in a special theater atmosphere.
Clear Voices Between Country, Rock, and Pop
Leonie guides the audience with an expressive voice through a repertoire that ranges from country to rock to pop. With Dolly Parton's iconic song Jolene as well as tracks from Michael Jackson, Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga, Sarah Connor, and Phil Collins, a musical tension arc full of recognition and surprising sound colors is created.
Literature Gets Space
Bestselling author Dieter Ebels reads from his book Lola. In the focused acoustics of the church, storytelling and music meet directly. The reading sets a literary counterpoint to the concert program and expands the afternoon with its own dramatic color.
Handmade Music and Familiar Melodies
Lutz and Doris Peller bring handmade music to the stage. Their musical hand luggage includes songs from the Carpenters and John Denver to Esther and Abi Ofarim, as well as Petula Clark, Reinhard Mey, Leonard Cohen, and Hannes Wader. The selection promises warm memories, fine melodies, and direct contact between musicians and the audience.
A Church Becomes a Cultural Stage
The stage design emerges from the church space itself: light, architecture, and acoustics provide a clear, atmospheric framework for the contributions. Coffee and cake invite conversation, while presbyter Reiner Terhorst humorously and jovially moderates the afternoon. The event series thrives on closeness, diversity, and the open togetherness that has already inspired more than 100 visitors at previous editions.
Conclusion: An Afternoon Full of Sound and Stories
Culture Under the Church Tower impressively brings together music, literature, and community. Visitors can expect a varied stage experience with well-known songs, a literary reading, coffee and cake, as well as a special closeness to the audience. Admission is free; donations support further cultural activities of the community. Those who want to experience culture in a personal atmosphere should spend this Sunday afternoon live at the Gnadenkirche Neumühl.
