Discover the Little Witch with All Your Senses
On Friday, September 25, 2026, the Historical Museum Bielefeld invites you to a special tour through the interactive exhibition The Little Witch. The offer is aimed at blind people and those with visual impairments and provides a multifaceted, accessible entry into Otfried Preußler's famous children's book character.
An Exhibition to Experience and Understand
The focus is on the story of the Little Witch, who has accompanied generations of children and adults since her publication in 1957. The special exhibition transforms the children's book classic into a lively world of experience with the witch's house, the raven Abraxas, and themes surrounding good deeds, courage, and self-determination.
This inclusive city and museum tour is not just about viewing exhibits. The exhibition offers access to local cultural mediation and the literary heritage of the beloved character through narratives, materials, and tangible impressions. Thus, history becomes something to touch, and the museum atmosphere turns into a sensual discovery experience.
Literary Heritage and Cultural Participation
The tour combines expertise about the origins of the Little Witch with a barrier-aware mediation. Otfried Preußler's narrative marked a shift in children's literature: The witch does not appear as a purely evil figure but as a lovable, quirky, and learning character. Her adventures with the raven Abraxas, the higher witch, and Aunt Rumpumpel invite reflection on friendship, responsibility, and one's own path.
The Historical Museum Bielefeld thus creates a cultural enrichment for people with different perception experiences. The tour with Sandra Bernhardt makes the exhibition particularly accessible and places individual encounters with the content at its center.
Meeting Point at the Historical Museum Bielefeld
The event takes place at the Historical Museum Bielefeld in Ravensberger Park. The museum presents the special exhibition The Little Witch from July 12 to October 18, 2026. The tour lasts from 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM. Registration with the museum at 0521 51-3635 is required.

Conclusion: An Inclusive Journey into the World of the Little Witch
This special tour combines literary imagination, expert cultural mediation, and lived participation.
