Take a walk in the footsteps of a famous Berliner: Lina Morgenstern, affectionate known as “Soup Lina”. Whet your appetite for a tasty brunch, including a live reading, and learn about the life and work of this extraordinary Jewish woman from the nineteenth century. Birgitt Claus, manager of the museum café, will bring her to life with the help of select writings by Morgenstern, the author and activist for peace and women’s rights, and by her relative the poet Dagmar Nick. Next, on a guided walk through Kreuzberg, you will get to know some of the places where Lina Morgenstern made her mark and will try a soup from Lina’s kitchen for yourself. Afterwards, you are welcome to visit the exhibition at the Jewish Museum Berlin.
The event is a collaboration with eßkultur.
