Kranzlstädt

room 6 ECHOES

Location: Boyle, Roscommon, Ireland

Immerse yourself in Kränzlstadt! A city under the shadow of authoritarian control. Through layered sound and story, this walk invites you to experience the atmosphere of surveillance, restriction, and quiet resistance. Feel the tension of daily life as residents navigate a reality shaped by control, and begin to question what lies beneath the surface.
