Founded in 1962, the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern folklore ensemble "Richard Wossidlo" from Ribnitz-Damgarten is not only highly recognized in Mecklenburg and Vorpommern, but also throughout Germany. In cooperation with folklorists, museums and hand weavers, old costumes, traditions and customs from Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Vorpommern have been revived. In their stage sets, its members tell the audience about the life of our ancestors through dance.
All age groups of the association present their folklore performances with historical and historic backgrounds with a lot of verve and joy. In addition to the dancing, they also speak and sing in dialect, accompanied by an excellent music group. The dance performances are interpreted in a new and modern way and adapted to today's lifestyle.
The ensemble also feels responsible for the preservation of traditional costumes in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and makes a significant contribution to saving them from oblivion. They have the largest exhibition of traditional costumes in our state.
They have performed internationally on 4 continents and in over 50 countries around the world. Most recently, the ensemble represented local folklore in Cuba. This year they will be guests in Serbia with 13 other nations.
