    Das grüne München
    Den Englischen Garten und den Olympiapark kennt jeder. Doch München hat weit mehr Gärten und Parkanlagen zu bieten, die mit Blütenpracht, verschlungenen Wegen und großer Kunst von Bildhauerei bis Architektur glänzen: Der Hofgarten, die Maximiliansanlagen, der Herzogpark, die Frühlingsanlagen und der Alte Botanische Garten sind nur einige dieser historischen "grünen Lungen" - teils heiß geliebte Treffpunkte von Alt und Jung, teils wenig bekannte Schmuckstücke des Gartenbaus.Die Historikerin Susanne Herleth-Krentz gibt einen Überblick über die Entwicklung der Gartenkunst und entdeckt zusammen mit ihren Lesern die Spuren früherer Jahrhunderte in zierlichen Pavillons, an Gartenfiguren oder Wasserspielen. Oft sind die grünen Oasen der Ruhe fürstlichen Ursprungs, ihre Geschichte ist aufs Engste mit dem bayerischen Königshaus verbunden. Genießen Sie Geschichte und Natur im Einklang und lassen Sie beim Spaziergang die Seele baumeln!

In dieser Zeit lebt Hans Gebhardt, fünfzehn Jahre alt, begeisterter Turner, Hinterhofkind.Berlin 1932/33. Wohnungselend und Arbeitslosigkeit haben ihren Höhepunkt erreicht, die Weimarer Republik geht ihrem Ende entgegen. Der fünfzehnjährige Hans aus der Ackerstraße hat noch Glück gehabt, denn er hat zwar keine Lehrstelle, aber wenigstens Arbeit gefunden in der Fabrik. Doch die politischen Auseinandersetzungen spiegeln sich auch in seiner Familie wider. Und Hans muss sich immer wieder entscheiden: für oder gegen seinen Bruder Helle, den Kommunisten; für oder gegen seine Schwester Martha, deren Freund zur SA geht; für oder gegen seine Freundin Mieze, die Halbjüdin ist. - »Kordon zeigt politische Zusammenhänge auf, ergreift Partei. Doch er doziert keine Zeile lang. Er erzählt.« Regine Krentz, Luzerner Neueste Nachrichten

    After Glow: Ghost Hunters, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 571min
    Dear Listener: Welcome back to my other world - the rules are a little different here. Life is complicated for Lydia Smith. She's working at that tacky, third-rate museum, Shrimpton's House of Ancient Horrors, trying to salvage her career in para-archaeology - and dating the most dangerous man in town. Just when she thinks she might be getting things under control, she stumbles over a dead body and discovers that her lover has a secret past that could get him killed. Just to top it off, there's trouble brewing underground in the eerie, glowing green passageways of the Dead City. Of course, all of these problems pale in comparison to the most pressing issue: Lydia has been invited to the Restoration Ball and she hasn't got a thing to wear. If, like me, you sometimes relish your romantic suspense with a paranormal twist, join me for After Glow. Sincerely, Jayne Ann Krentz, writing as Jayne Castle ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Hadern
    Rund hundert Jahre älter als die Stadt München selbst ist ihr südwestlichster Stadtbezirk Hadern. Als Haderun wird der Ort erstmals im 11. Jahrhundert erwähnt. Vermutlich hatten aber schon viel früher Bauern aus Gräfelfing, Planegg oder Gauting den Wald gerodet und die Siedlungen Klein- und Großhadern gegründet. Über die Jahrhunderte hinweg war Hadern ländlich geprägt, doch die Stadt rückte aufgrund fortschreitender Industrialisierung immer näher.Dem Bauunternehmer Jakob Heilmann ist es zu verdanken, dass sich um 1900 der gehobene Mittelstand in der neuen Villenkolonie niederließ. Hans Grässel konzipierte den Waldfriedhof, der bis heute als einer der größten Friedhöfe Deutschlands ortsbildprägend ist. 1938 schließlich wurde Hadern nach München eingemeindet und wächst seither unaufhörlich. Bedeutendes Wissenschaftszentrum und Wirtschaftsfaktor ist das Universitätsklinikum Großhadern.Die Historikerin Susanne Herleth-Krentz, ehemalige Mitarbeiterin der Bayerischen Staatsbibliothek, beleuchtet die Geschichte Haderns von seinen Anfängen bis ins 20. Jahrhundert anhand von historischen Aufnahmen aus den umfangreichen Fotosammlungen des Stadtarchivs München.
