Saxony will be presenting itself at Expo 2025 in Osaka next Wednesday with a country day. In the German pavilion, the Free State will present a stage program of culture, music, culinary delights and handicrafts, as announced by the State Chancellery.
Music, bread and handicrafts from the Free State
Under the motto "Music unites - tradition obliges", an ensemble of the Saxonia Freiberg Mining Music Corps will perform the world-famous "Steigerlied", among other things. Visitors to the world exhibition can taste Saxon bread and gain an insight into porcelain painting and watchmaking in Glashütte.
The arts and crafts of the Erzgebirge will bring a pre-Christmas atmosphere to Japan with candle arches, smokers, nutcrackers and pyramids. Elector Augustus the Strong - portrayed by actor Steffen Urban - is also part of the program.
