Blindekuh

Most of us cannot imagine what it is like to be blind. We tend to regard blindness as a tremendous handicap, and we are used to guiding and helping the blind. Blindekuh turns the roles on their head. In the dark, we experience our own helplessness and observe the selfassurance with which the blind navigate the everyday world. As hosts, the visually challenged ensure that their guests do not perceive darkness as a threat but as an enriching experience.

The truth of the matter is that life in the dark provides insights of its own, banishing many preconceived ideas. Closeness becomes important because communication at a distance does not work in darkness. Last but not
least, visitors come to know another, slower concept of time, as “seeing” in the dark means exploring an invisible world with the senses of hearing, smell, taste and touch. Discover a new universe which will open your eyes for good by closing them for an hour.
