Sorbian Myths, Riddles, and Creativity: An Afternoon in the Spinte
When the autumn harvest was collected and the days grew shorter, Sorbian women and girls would gather in the Spinte to process the harvested flax together. On Friday, October 30, 2026, the Wendish Museum Cottbus will bring this special tradition to life in a family-friendly event experience.
