Welcome to NemolandAt the foot of the Izera Mountains in Lower Silesia lies Nemoland: a goat farm and a centre for stories, with meadows, woodland, a big rock, houses and a mountain stream. You can walk, spend time with the goats, lend a hand and stay here. The landscape is also the starting point for theatre, films and story walks. The Wishroom holds African divination and ritual objects, which are part of the search for lost and forgotten stories and myth. From the goats to the WishroomThe goats lead you into the grounds. Further along are the fireplace, the tree, the spring, the old pit, the rock, the river with the cult place and the forest to the Wishroom, the African Oracle Room. Each place has its own myth, ritual or action. The map below shows the way. Nemoland is a Zone of Myth. The houses, animals and places are real. Stories about their inhabitants, ancestors and spirits are told and performed here, and come into life. |
