Stavenhagen, July 2025 — The picturesque town of Stavenhagen is gearing up for an exciting week filled with music, theatre, and various events. The 65th Fritz-Reuter Festival, scheduled from July 11th to 13th, promises to be a celebration not to be missed.
The festival's programme is diverse and engaging, including guided tours, an open-air performance titled "From the French time", and more. The SV Union Wesenberg, celebrating its centenary this week, is also joining the festivities with a series of events.
On Thursday, the canoe lodge will host an open day, offering taster courses and an "Elephant Race" of canoes at 6 pm. Bowling enthusiasts will gather on Wednesday as part of the celebrations.
Friday will be a day focused on the youth and prominent guests from sports and politics. A local men's team will play against the traditional team of 1. FC Union Berlin at 3 pm. Music lover's eyes will be on KulturWirtschaft Triepkendorf in Feldberger Seenlandschaft, where singer-songwriter Hans-Eckardt Wenzel will be hosting a book premiere for his new poetry collection, "At my shoulders hangs the night".
On Saturday, July 12th, Wenzel will also be performing a concert at Kulturstall Userin near Neustrelitz. Tickets for the concert can be purchased under 03981 200949 or at the box office.
Meanwhile, on Tuesday, July 8th, visitors to the Müritzeum can observe a diver cleaning the fish tank, with the opportunity to ask questions. The Inselschwimmen in Malchow, taking place for the 25th time on July 13th, will round off the week's events.
For those interested in the Wind on Land Act, the Regional Planning Association of the Lake District is planning to establish priority areas in the fall. However, details regarding a potential legal loophole in wind turbine permitting, as previously speculated, could not be found in the current search results. For more specific information on this matter, it may be necessary to consult local council minutes, planning commission reports, or Lake District authority publications.
The detailed programme for the festival can be found under Program 2025 with GW.cdr. We look forward to seeing you in Stavenhagen for a week of unforgettable experiences!
