- International/Cultural relations
Aim is the international cooperation, the meetings of people from different countries in spirit of the peace and the reconciliation.
In our municipality live 20% of Muslims (mostly from Turkey). For the meeting of the religions the peace bell is a special place of the tolerance and the respect.
Since the foundation of the peace bell symposia, meetings of all kind are carried out during the whole year between generations and citizens of all countries.
Prominent personalities are appointed yearly "ambassadors of the Friedensglocke", for example Kardinal Franz König, Erwin Kräutler, representants of cultur, economy and arts.
Yearly more than 200,000 people visit the bell and find meditation and good thoughts for the peace in the family, the native country and all over the world. Yearly youngsters from Israel (Jewish and Palestinian children) meet to a contemplative meeting with the peace bell.
