As part of the project “Cultural Holiday Camp”, young talents from Swjahel (Ukraine) from the field of culture had the opportunity to visit Sindelfingen and its surroundings for ten days with the support of the city of Sindelfingen.

The programme of the camp was prepared taking into account the rules and appropriate conditions for a safe stay of the children. It included a variety of excursions, presentations, workshops, training in working groups, etc. The aim of these activities was to promote personal development, restore confidence in the future and, most importantly, divert attention from the traumatic experience of war.

During this time, the children actively participated in the events and learned about the history, customs and traditions of Germany. In the first days, they visited the local town hall, where the Ukrainian guests were personally welcomed by Sindelfingen’s Lord Mayor Dr. Bernd Vöhringer. They visited the Mercedes Benz plant and were able to see how cars are made. The visit programme also included horse riding and ice skating, a visit to the Wilhelma zoological-botanical garden and the fairytale castle of Hohenzollern

Despite the cold season, we were warm and cordial together. The Ukrainian children are very grateful to everyone who contributed to this project. It was a great opportunity for them to learn about the world around and to develop themselves.
