A literary scavenger hunt through the Hanseatic city
Bookcrossing is a global movement that lets books travel the world as ambassadors. The aim is to bring people together, promote reading and experience the city as a living reading space. From 14 to 17 January 2026 , we invite you to go in search of books in different parts of Rostock - whether as a fast-paced scavenger hunt or as a leisurely stroll through the urban space.
As always, the books can be found, read and released again at: www.bookcrossing.com OR end up on your own bookshelf! Participation is free.
You can find more information about the drop-off locations on our social media channels on a daily basis from January 14 to 17.
In cooperation with: Rostock City Library, Hugendubel Rostock, Zukunftsladen, District and Meeting Center/Multigenerational House "T'winkelhus" & Literaturhaus Rostock.
The Literaturhaus Rostock is funded by the Hanseatic and University City of Rostock and the Ministry of Science, Culture and Federal and European Affairs.
