The aim is to harmonize tradition and modernity and thus connect the past, present and future. - Cultural promotion and awards
The districts promote regional artists and projects and award prizes for commitment in the cultural field. - Museums
With their museums, the districts offer interesting insights into regional history. The open-air museums are a particular focus. - Theater and amateur dramatics
The districts are involved in the maintenance of professional theaters and are the point of contact for amateur dramatics. - Music and media
The districts maintain vocational schools for music as well as research centers for folk music and historical songs.
Some districts have also appointed honorary popular music officers who are available as regional contacts for music genres, particularly pop, rock and jazz. Media advisory services are also becoming increasingly important, focusing on the responsible and active use of media, especially when working with children and young people. - Preservation of historical monuments
The preservation of historical monuments is an important part of the cultural work of the districts. For this reason, the districts provide grants to support the preservation of historical buildings and advise on measures to preserve historical monuments.
