Suhl saves: dissolution of the cultural office and big celebrations in sight!
In a significant step, the city of Suhl has decided to make savings in administration, which has led to the dissolution of the Office for Culture, Tourism and Sport. This decision means that the culture department will now report directly to the mayor. This is part of a comprehensive reform plan to increase efficiency in city administration.
In addition to the administrative reform, there are several major celebrations scheduled in the coming years. In 2026, the 100th birthday of Herbert Roth, one of Thuringia's most famous composers, will be celebrated. Another highlight will be the central Germany-wide event on Hiking Day. The city is also planning a 500th anniversary celebration of its founding in 2027.
Herbert Roth and his significance
Herbert Roth is considered the “father of folk music” and has had a lasting impact on Thuringia's cultural heritage. His most famous work, the “Rennsteiglied”, is often referred to as the anthem of the Thuringian Forest. The importance of Roth for regional musical culture cannot be overestimated.
The Herbert Roth exhibition is located in Suhl-Vesser, which pays homage to this outstanding artist. The exhibition not only offers visitors insights into Roth's life, but also into his musical successes and sources of inspiration. There are numerous exhibits, personal items and musical memories on display, which appeal primarily to folk music fans and those interested in culture.
A look at the exhibition
The Herbert Roth exhibition in Vesser is aimed at everyone who is interested in the cultural roots of Thuringia. The exhibition provides a deep understanding of Roth's influence on the local music scene. Accessibility information is available on the City of Suhl website, making access easier for all visitors.
These developments in Suhl not only underline the importance of culture for the city, but also the desire to keep traditions alive. With the planned celebrations and the anchoring of culture in the city administration, Suhl will increasingly rely on its cultural roots in the future.
