Magical Work Experience for Children and Families

On Sunday, September 27, 2026, the Historical Museum Bielefeld invites you to a guided tour of the interactive exhibition The Little Witch. The event takes small and large visitors into the imaginative world of Otfried Preußler's children's book classic and connects cultural education with an immediate art experience.

A Children's Book Character Becomes a World of Experience

The Little Witch was published in 1957 and has shaped generations of children. In the exhibition, families meet the self-confident witch, her clever raven Abraxas, and other characters from the story. The curation makes literature tangibly experienceable: The familiar children's book is translated into a walkable, interactive exhibition atmosphere.

Colors, Shapes, and Spaces Full of Imagination

The focus is on lovingly designed spaces, including the little witch's house. Visitors experience an exhibition that works with scenic elements, illustrations, and playful stations. The aesthetic experience arises not only through observation but also through movement, action, and joint discovery.

Participate, Experiment, and Do Good Deeds

The guided tour accompanies children and families through the adventures of the little witch. It addresses her desire to become a good witch, bravery, friendship, and the encounter with the witches' council. Broom riding, playful tasks, and interactive mediation offerings open an age-appropriate access to literature, painting, illustration, and museum presentation.

Cultural Education with Otfried Preußler

The exhibition of the Young Museum Stuttgart was first developed in 2023 as a lively interactive exhibition and is a guest at the Historical Museum Bielefeld in 2026. It shows how literature education, exhibition design, and museum pedagogy can be interconnected. Children experience that a work experience can also take place physically, narratively, and communally.

Conclusion: An Art Experience for Curious Witch Fans

The guided tour promises an inspiring aesthetic experience for families who want to not only read but also discover Otfried Preußler's world live. Those who want to connect imagination, literature, and interactive exhibition culture should not miss this magical art experience at the Historical Museum Bielefeld.
