Alles im Fluss

Monuments have to do directly with people in the past and present, create a connection between them. The book tells stories about 750 years - around the Marienkirche and the Gertraudenkirche in Frankfurt an der Oder. Through people of different generations, the readers learn a lot about the history of the city, the churches and their works of art. It begins with Jakob, who comes to Frankfurt in the 13th century and encounters the building site for a large church. And it ends with young Hanna, who is involved in a restoration of the altar of St. Mary's in 2023. In "Additional portions for bright minds", technical terms are explained and craft techniques are explained - so that it is even easier to understand how close the past is to us.
