During the first Erasmus mobility week in Augsburg, students engaged in an exciting exploration of legends from the Alpine region. Their focus was on the enchanting tale of the Wolpertinger, a mythical creature said to roam the Bavarian Alps.
The week culminated in a captivating puppet show, where students brought this legendary story to life. The performance featured characters like Gretel and Kasperle, who embarked on an adventurous quest to find the elusive Wolpertinger. The narrative unfolded with humor and suspense, as the characters encountered magical elements like the Irrwurz, a mystical root that causes confusion and disorientation.
The students showcased their creativity and teamwork, playing the puppets and designing the stage to reflect the enchanting atmosphere of the Alps. The audience was treated to a delightful blend of storytelling, artistry, and cultural education, highlighting the importance of legends in understanding local heritage.
This engaging activity not only fostered collaboration among the learners but also deepened their appreciation for the rich folklore of the Alpine region. The puppet show was a resounding success, leaving both participants and spectators with a sense of wonder and a newfound connection to the legends that shape their cultural landscape.
