    The year 2026 will be the jubilee year of the 1000-year-old literary city of Bad Gandersheim. Hrotsvit, modern Roswitha von Gandersheim, a canoness, is considered the first German poetess, she wrote spiritual writings, historical poems and the first dramas since antiquity. She is one of the most important female writers of the Middle Ages. Events from literature, theater, music and history, from medieval to modern, will honor this outstanding woman.
