Series Debut: Hillesheim Marks the Start of the West Wall Saga

In the picturesque town of Hillesheim, Vulkaneifel, a unique series of events is set to take place, starting on September 6th. The events, named "Westwall Stories", are a collaborative effort between the local heritage and history associations, the Hillesheim city administration, and other interested parties.

The Westwall, a defensive line built by the Nazis before the war, serves as the backdrop for these thought-provoking events. The Westwall was constructed to secure the German Reich to the west, but in Hillesheim, it is being used to explore various borders - both real and mental.

Anna-Carina Blessmann, a website reporter, recently met with the organisers of the events to discuss their goals and vision. The organisers aim to delve into the historical significance of the Westwall, while also encouraging participants to reflect on their own personal and societal boundaries.

The events in Hillesheim can be shared via various platforms, including WhatsApp, Facebook, messaging service X, and Email. This wide reach ensures that the important messages and discussions from the events can reach a broad audience, fostering a greater understanding of the past and its relevance to the present.

So, if you're interested in exploring the intersection of history and the present, or if you simply want to learn more about the Westwall and its impact on the town of Hillesheim, be sure to mark your calendars for September 6th and beyond. The Westwall Stories events promise to be an enlightening and engaging experience for all who attend.
