The press release of the Ostrava-Gesellschaft.
For a scientific analysis of the last aristocratic owners of the Ostrava castle there are also good reasons as for the organization of a concert in his honor. Hans-Hasso von Veltheim, who owned the Ostrava Castle and the accompanying land of 1927 was not a classic landlord more. As Honorary Knight of the Order of St John, he had pledged to charity. Recall the comprehensive redevelopment of the park, which he then made available to the public. In addition, Hans-Hasso von Veltheim left to posterity in the Protestant church, a chapel in the castle anthroposophic style that should be regarded as architecturally unique and attracts many visitors for years to Ostrava. to appreciate from today's perspective is particularly his invitation for dialogue to anyone with an open heart and mind to it came to Ostrava. The renovation of the badly dilapidated castle in 1927 was therefore not alone the noble representation, but the establishment of a place of cultural encounters.
Himself had understood from Veltheim as a modern individual, who could no longer trust the security of a cultivated for generations identity.
His lifelong search for identity and orientation is reflected in his books and countless letters. Hans-Hasso appears here as a Veltheim of the political, ideological and religious life of the first half of the 20th Century extraordinary person involved.
Due to the excellent Tradition can be discussed in the person of Hans-Hasso Veltheim numerous cultural and historical issues. The conference will go mainly to his literary work, his friendship with Leo Baeck and Richard Wilhelm and around the altar chapel built by his grave in the Protestant church door. The speakers at that first meeting in Ostrava Castle travel from all over Germany to.
