Story Café in the Au: An evening full of memories, community, and local history

The Traunstein Story Café opens on June 16, 2026, a space for vibrant memory culture. In the community room in the Au, personal life stories meet local contemporary history: Beatrix “Bobby” Jäger shares her childhood in the Au, growing up with six siblings, and a district that has experienced many changes.

A literary experience from the heart of the city

The format follows the tradition of the story café: it is not the big stage, but the closeness that matters. This is where the special reading atmosphere of the evening lies. Anyone who takes a seat here does not experience a distant lecture but a meeting with the author in the broader sense - with a voice that makes history visible not abstractly, but from the experience of lived everyday life.

The Au as a memory space

The Au is more than just a district. It is a social resonance space where labor history, community, and change overlap. The story café makes these layers audible. The narrative about the Härthaus, the fire in the Au, and the resettlement of the family opens the view to those stories that often only appear on the fringes of the official city memory - and are precisely for this reason culturally precious.

Art of language, exchange, and historical depth

The uniqueness of this evening lies in the interplay of individual memory and collective conversation. The evening not only offers a biographical narrative but also space for exchange about life in the lower town, challenges, neighborhood, and identity. Such storytelling formats strengthen reading culture, conversation culture, and the literary quality of listening itself.

A place with atmosphere and good accessibility

The community room in the Au at Karl-Theodor-Platz 7 is located in an area closely connected to the city's history. For visitors, the location is well integrated into the Au; parking is also free for three hours at the Karl-Theodor parking lot. The event takes place indoors and is thus suitable for a quiet, focused evening in a protected environment.

Conclusion: An evening that brings Traunstein history to life

Those interested in literature, oral tradition, and regional culture will find a quiet, dense, and moving event experience here. The Traunstein Story Café in the Au connects personal memory with local history and creates an evening that resonates. Be there live on June 16, 2026, and experience the stories of the Au firsthand.
