When the November wind blows outside, a special journey begins in the fairy tent behind the cultural center abraxas: On November 10, 2026, children from the age of four and their families will experience the legend of St. Martin with great storytelling, crackling fire, and afterwards, stick bread baking.

A Story About Courage, Compassion, and Sharing

Matthias Fischer narrates the well-known legend of Martin expressively and in a child-friendly manner. The story takes families from Martin's childhood through his time as a Roman soldier to the famous sharing of his cloak and his appointment as bishop. Families encounter important themes such as helpfulness, charity, and the courage to stand up for one another.

Storytelling with All Senses

In the cozy fairy tent, an atmospheric setting is created for shared time together. The flickering fire, the closeness to nature, and the lively storytelling engage children on multiple levels. The event combines imagination, listening, and social learning into an age-appropriate learning experience.

Stick Bread by the Fire as a Shared Conclusion

After the story, it gets practical and sociable: Visitors will bake stick bread together by the fire. This participatory experience strengthens the community, promotes independence, and turns the theater visit into a special family afternoon filled with children's laughter, warmth, and learning fun.

Family-Friendly and Weather-Independent

The event takes place in the fairy tent on the meadow behind the cultural center abraxas and will be conducted in any weather. The program is appropriately designed for children from four years old. Due to the fire, attentive supervision by adult caregivers is recommended. Tickets are available online through the fairy tent; there is no advance sale at the abraxas office.

Conclusion: Dive In Together and Rediscover St. Martin
