Fort Paul - Tag des offenen Denkmals

Once again this year, Fort Paul e.V. is opening the gates to the fort, its towers, and the cellars for Open Monument Day. After welcoming over 1,300 visitors to Fort Paul in the Volksgarten in 2025, we are delighted to participate in Germany’s largest cultural event again this year. In addition to guided tours of the building, the studios, and the park grounds, there will also be an exhibition on the history of the fort and the Volksgarten. Weather permitting, we’ll offer simple refreshments outdoors in the courtyard. We’re especially looking forward to three bands this year:“Birds on Wire”from Cologne,“Die hektischen Flecken”from Düsseldorf, and“Cumulus”from Bocholt.
