On Wednesday, November 20, 2024, the Reinickendorf museum will become the setting for an exciting literary event! At 6 p.m. the highly expected book presentation "The authorized signatory of Wedding" takes place, which not only offers a reading, but also a captivating conversation. This event is a tribute to the moving life of the merchant Erwin Koerfgen, who lived in the charming Berlin district of Hermsdorf from 1923 until his death in 1947.

Erwin Koerfgen, born in the Wedding workers' district in 1892, was more than just a authorized representative of the cigar factory "Loeser & Wolff" - he was a visionary! His dream of living in his own garden became a reality in Hermsdorf, where he lived the connection between city and nature in a unique way. "Koerfgen was not just an authorized representative, but a person with an extraordinary feeling for life," emphasizes district councilor for culture Harald Muschner (CDU).
