During five days we explored their city together with pupils from a German high school, students, teachers, librarians and biologists, people of all different ages. The project was supported and facilitated by the Centrul Cultural German Sibiu. It showed that the project also works with a very divers group of people, the age of participants ranging from 13 years to 60 years old. Everybody has a story to tell or wants to change something in their own home city. Sibiu/Hermannstadt is a city in Transylvania, Romania, with a population of around 145.000 inhabitants. The first official record referring to the Sibiu area comes from 1191. In 2007 Sibiu/Hermannstadt was designated ‘the European Capital of Culture’.
