Overview

  • The special show “Seid ihr alle da? Kasper, Struppi und ihre Freunde” opened in July and will run through October 19 at the Stadtmuseum Pirna.
  • Curator Ivelina Angelova commissioned illustrator Anja-Katharina Halbig to create a 1.50 m oversized Struppi model as a selfie station in the museum foyer.
  • The original Struppi hand puppet, donated in 2019, is displayed in a conservation-grade case under strict no-touch, no-photo rules.
  • Two restored television episodes from the Berlin-Adlershof studio featuring Heinz Fülfe’s ventriloquism are available for visitors to watch.
  • The exhibition highlights the legacy of Heinz Fülfe, known as Taddeus Punkt, who performed Struppi on the DDR children’s series Unser Sandmännchen starting in 1959.
