Creative Writing

This collection of short science fiction stories, poems and art work will give you an insight into the way we – students from Bucharest, Budapest, Copenhagen, Rome, and Stuttgart – imagine the future and bring you closer to our individual visions of Europe in 2050 and beyond. It is part of our project “Limes: Borders and Bridges – Challenging division in Europe” supported by the European programme Erasmus plus and will introduce you to fictitious societal and political concepts, involving controversial issues such as digitalization, international affairs or climate change. Above all, we are taking you on a unique journey through worlds, where understanding of society and fundamental values have changed dramatically, all told through the eyes of characters who are deeply involved in those issues.

We sincerely hope, that you enjoy the journey into the future and are grateful for your comments, thoughts questions, suggestions and ideas.

Thank you Bucharest, the German girls wrote a few lines to express all your guests gratitude.

After visiting Bucharest for one week, all of us made new friends, learned a lot of new things about Europe and Bucharest and had a better impression of how difficult it is to be a politician.
So first of all we would like to thank all the Romanian teachers, students and host families for making this week so great and letting us be part of your daily lives. Your warm welcome immediately created a nice atmosphere that lasted the whole week long and made it very easy and harmonious to work together at the project.
Added to that, thank you for giving us the chance to visit all the interesting sights and museums that gave us a very good impression of the past and the present situation of Romania.
But of course not only the Romanian teachers did a good job at planning this project but also all the teachers from the other countries had very different and interesting games and projects that made this week varied and exciting.
Furthermore, we were really appreciative of the opportunity to communicate with people of our age from different European countries. It wasn’t only interesting to hear about their everyday lives but to hear about their political opinions as well.

So all in all the German group wants to thank everyone who made this week unforgetable, let us experience a lot of new things and opened their houses and hearts for us.

LIMES Gallery has opened…

… and guess what, tickets are free.

We are very proud to finally make the LIMES gallery accessible to the public. The pictures were taken as part of the LIMES project by students. They illustrate various borders, not only physical ones, but also those that run through society, like ethnicity, poverty, historical ones, etc.
