Culture reception in Freising: City celebrates diversity and social cohesion!

On July 7, 2025, a lively cultural reception took place in the Asam foyer of the city of Freising, which was opened by Mayor Tobias Eschenbacher. With a full foyer and numerous guests, the evening became a successful meeting for cultural workers, where networking and the exchange of ideas were in the foreground. In his speech, Eschenbacher emphasized the essential role of culture for the social cohesion and identity of the city. He also looked back on the successful city anniversary 2024, which offered a special platform for the cultural offers of the region in many ways.

It is particularly important to the mayor that the city of Freising creates the framework conditions for cultural participation. He pointed out that it is crucial to give access to music and culture for all citizens: inside. "60 percent of our population does not play an instrument, and a quarter of the residents: Inside, never visited cultural events or museums," he emphasized, and called for a discussion about the opportunities for cultural participation in the city. It sees that admission to the city museum is now free of charge for children.

cultural diversity and commitment

Cultural officer Nico Heitz underlined the diversity of the cultural workers in Freising during his speech. He encouraged those present to actively support the numerous cultural offers in the city. The city not only invests in the cultural infrastructure, but also strives for each child in Freising at least one concert or play in the Asambau during his school days. "The constant revitalization of the city center contributes significantly to the cultural diversity," added Heitz.

The new director of the city museum, Eva Willberg, who succeeds Dr. Ulrike Götz started, enriched the cultural reception with her view of the history of the museum. She promised to preserve and develop the heritage of the house in order to promote cultural participation for everyone. The guests of the reception also had the opportunity to visit the museum during the event.

musical interludes and outlook

A musical contribution by the Moosacher Mix of the music school provided a pleasant atmosphere and underlined the city's commitment to cultural performances. Eschenbacher concluded his speech with an inspiring quote from Pablo Picasso, which underlines the importance of culture.

Overall, the 2025 cultural reception made it clear that Freising is on the right track to ensure cultural participation for everyone. The city is actively trying to access art and culture - and not only for the cultural workers themselves, but also for the citizens: inside that should benefit from these offers every day. The evening was a clear sign of appreciation and gratitude to all those who are involved in culture.
