Destination Culture
November 3, 2021The multimedia format brings viewers useful travel information, as well as inspiration, beautiful imagery and entertainment.
In season 1 the focus is on cultural destinations in Saxony. In a total of seven episodes, viewers are taken from Pückler Park in Bad Muskau, to the Horch Museum in Zwickau, to watch manufactories in Glashütte, to the porcelain museum in Meissen, to the Schminke House in Löbau, and to the cotton spinning mill in Leipzig. They also get to visit an international Instagram star: the Rakotz Bridge in the Kromlau Rhododendron Park with its fanatastical reflection in the water.
The German-Scottish presenter Hannah Hummel travels to her cultural destinations in a VW Beetle convertible. The model is a German classic, but this particular 40-year old car comes with a very special feature as it was converted to run on electricity.
Interfaces between tradition and innovation are a recurrent theme in “Destination Culture.” The episodes feature footage filmed in old castles and palaces, among other venues, where young Instagrammers talk about why these places continue to draw so many visitors, and reveal the most beautiful photo motifs.
Epidode 1: Moritzburg Castle & Radebeul
Hannah Hummel visits the fairytale-like Moritzburg Castle, where the 1970s classic ‘Three Wishes for Cinderella’ was filmed. Her travel itinerary also includes a trip to the picturesque vineyards of Radebeul, the Karl May Museum, and a ride on a Lössnitz Railway steam train.
