All cultures of peoples have contributed to the cultural history of mankind, more or less. We are currently experiencing a changing world in which many valuable things seem to be getting lost. It therefore makes sense to reflect on the important positive contributions of different cultural areas. This is about Central Europe, i.e. German-speaking countries. A large number of exponents are presented with their contributions to music, philosophy, literature, enlightenment and spirituality. It is noticeable that the period between the Middle Ages and modern times stands out, characterized by terms such as classicism, romanticism, idealism and humanism. The permeation of nature by the divine spirit is particularly striking, as is the love of nature. This stands in contrast to the materialism that currently prevails. A return to the values of this important period in Central Europe seems valuable.
