Visit to Bergisch Gladbach

The LVR-Industriemuseum consists of 6 venues. One of them is an old paper mill. In March our colleagues from this venue (located in Bergisch Gladbach) invited our American guests to visit them. Katie, Anita, Nina and me got a great guided tour through the museum.
Katie and Anita produced their own paper! At lunch time we ate a typical meal at the museum cafe: potatoes and fried eggs. After that our American guests spent a lot of time at the museum shop.


My colleague Beatrix currently tries to prepare a lecture for a big conference for education curators in October. If that works, we’ll have the chance to present our Transatlantic Bridge to a wide audience of professionals.
