Jungbusch - Die Religionstour zum "Tag der Religionen"

In the organizer's words:

The "World Religion Day" is an annual day that aims to promote interreligious dialog and strengthen understanding and tolerance between different religions.

Believers of the three world religions have lived together in Mannheim for centuries. Jews, Christians and Muslims have found their place at the confluence of the Rhine and Neckar rivers.
On August 23, 1652, Elector Karl Ludwig pledged his protection to all religious communities in the renewed city privileges. As a result, believers who were unwanted or persecuted elsewhere settled in Mannheim at an early stage.
Where can evidence and places of Jewish, Christian and Muslim life be found in Jungbusch? And what do the three Abrahamic religions have in common?
With this multimedia tour of the district, we want to make the historical and current religious diversity of Jungbusch visible. We will also take a critical look at some current developments and institutional structures.
Where is the Bruder Klaus Chapel? What was Jewish life like in Jungbusch before 1933 and afterwards? Where was the Jewish prayer house? Who are the mosques named after and what happens there? Does Jungbusch really only have the nightlife and nightlife mile to offer or are there also spiritual places to be found?
If you are curious about the answers to these and other questions, join us on a journey of discovery through the religious diversity of Jungbusch, through the past and present, through transience and transformation.
Let us surprise you!
Theologian Hermann Rütermann, who has been working in this district for over 30 years, will guide you through the district.
