Märchen

For centuries, they have told of wondrous events, distant worlds, talking animals, dangerous forests, and heroes who must face trials. Yet behind the well-known figures and fantastic tales lies more than mere entertainment for children. Fairy tales are mirrors of their time. They speak of fears, hopes, and the struggle between good and evil.

Even today, fairy tales appear – at first glance romantically idealized, at second full of abysses and nuances. They surface in literature, film, art, and music, but also in the stories we tell about ourselves, our society, and the future.
Fairy tales no longer stand only for enchanted forests, princesses, and talking animals. In the language of politics and the media, too, they emerge – as symbols of embellished realities or deliberate deception.
