The “House of Stories”

Old buildings have stories to tell. The one at Pfarrplatz 18 is no exception. It’s been vacant for years. Now it reveals its secrets.

Only minimal changes have been made to the building’s condition—the sole interventions have been what was absolutely necessary to rehab and repair. The atmosphere has been preserved. It’s as if everyday life only recently ceased to be played out in these rooms and hardly any time has elapsed since their occupants just picked up and left the premises. Beginning February 22, the “House of Stories” relates narratives about real life in exhibitions, readings and installations.
