ANIMAL-DANCE-FRANZ in St. Johannis Göttingen: A cultural service full of sound, movement, and joy of creation

This cultural service for everyone invites participation in a faith experience that places liturgy, dance, and church music into a vibrant resonance space. As part of the 11th Dance-Culture-Week 2026, a spiritual encounter will emerge in St. Johannis Göttingen that makes openness, contemplation, and community palpable.

A service between art and spirituality

The morning connects religious experience with artistic expression. Flamenco dancer Anna Castillo, the music of Bernd Eberhardt, and the theological perspective of Pastor Anna-Maria Klassen create a service that addresses body, mind, and soul. The focus on Francis of Assisi opens up a space for creation spirituality and the question of harmonious coexistence among all living beings.

Francis of Assisi as an impulse for peace and co-creatureliness

The event follows the Franciscan tradition, which places animals, humans, and all of creation in a common responsibility. The biblical vision of peace between wolf and lamb is not considered abstractly here but is made experienceable through the interplay of movement, word, and music. Thus, a service emerges that combines theological depth with a warm, inviting atmosphere.

St. Johannis as a cultural and spiritual place

The St. Johannis church has long shaped the spiritual life in Göttingen with its history and unique spatial feeling. The place provides the appropriate framework for cultural services that are open to all generations and make faith newly audible in dialogue with art and community. The church thus becomes a place of calm, resonance, and communal reflection.

Part of the 11th Dance-Culture-Week 2026

The cultural service is embedded in the 11th Dance-Culture-Week, which promises diverse artistic encounters from September 19 to 27, 2026. ANIMAL-DANCE-FRANZ brings this week into a special form of expression: as an invitation to not only hear faith but also to see, feel, and celebrate it. Free admission facilitates access and underscores the open character of the event.

Conclusion: A service that moves

ANIMAL-DANCE-FRANZ promises an inspiring Sunday morning filled with spiritual depth, musical power, and lively dance. Anyone wishing to experience creation, community, and faith in a special form should attend this cultural service at St. Johannis Göttingen live.
