Exploring with all senses: An outing that makes perception newly experienceable
This outing takes place from Kassel to Kaufungen and offers an impressive discovery experience around seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, and feeling. As part of the inclusion project Kick & Connect, the group visits the Sensory Walks at the Oberkaufungen Brick Factory, a field of experience with around 50 stations that uniquely connects local history, perception, and participation.
The Sensory Walks as a space for experience
In the walkable vaulted chambers of the renovated kiln, an extraordinary city tour unfolds in an expanded sense: not facades and squares are the focus, but one's own perception. The dark passage allows seeing to take a backseat, while other stations make sounds, scents, and optical illusions immediately experienceable. This creates cultural enrichment with high memorability.
A place with industrial history
The Oberkaufungen Brick Factory shapes the experience with its authentic atmosphere. The historic site links industrial past with a modern learning and experience format. The tour through the stations vividly conveys how conscious perception changes one’s view of the world and how inclusively designed offerings promote encounters.
Inclusion, orientation, and traveling together
The outing is aimed at people with and without disabilities and is also suitable for wheelchair users. At the same time, there are important practical notes: There are no accessible restrooms on site, the ground is partly uneven, and for a translation into German Sign Language, registration is required by June 10. This clear organization ensures trust and good planning.
Arrival and meeting point
The trip starts at 1 PM at Königsplatz in Kassel, and the tour begins at 2 PM in Kaufungen. Afterwards, the group will return to Kassel together. The outing is free of charge, including travel to and from, making it particularly attractive for anyone seeking a high-quality, barrier-aware cultural and natural experience.
Conclusion: An outing that sharpens the senses and strengthens community
Those who want to rediscover perception, experience inclusion, and get to know an extraordinary place with history will find an inspiring tour with a lasting impression here. The mix of field experience, joint travel, and personal guidance makes this outing a special appointment in the Kassel cultural calendar.
