The European Weeks Passau were founded in 1952 by American officers together with the city of Passau. The founders made the interaction of European peoples their goal. At that time you wanted to show and emphasize the values of cultural heritage and thereby overcome political barriers.
Understanding across borders, overcoming borders, cosmopolitanism - these cornerstones for peaceful and equal coexistence in different countries are necessary and natural for the city of Burghausen in its unique constellation of a border location in connection with an international industrial location.
So what makes more sense than seeking cultural cooperation with those who crossed the border from Lower Bavaria and thereby bringing European culture to Burghausen at the highest level?
Concerts with stars such as Nils Mönkemeyer, viola, Anja Lechner, cello, Julia Lezhneva, soprano, Martin Grubinger, percussion or Michael Wollny, piano, remain unforgettable highlights of the European Weeks Passau in Burghausen.
The city of Burghausen is pleased about the opportunity to express its responsibility towards the European idea.
The city of Burghausen has therefore been associated with the Festival Europäische Wochen Passau eV for many years.
