Every year in the weeks leading up to Easter, the Klangraum Krems Minoritenkirche becomes an inspiring meeting place for music from different eras, religions and cultures. Artistic director (since 2025): Albert Hosp

During the summer months, site-specific sound installations by international artists will bring the spatial architecture and acoustics of the Minorite Church and the chapter house to life in a special way. In 2026, Ulrike Königshofer will present two works Transforming Sound in the Kapitelsaal during the Imago Dei festival. Her new work ‘Air’ will then be shown as part of the donaufestival and – together with Karl Salzmann's ‘Marsch, Linie und Vibration’ (March, Line and Vibration) in the Minoritenkirche – from 16 July to 13 September 2026. (Curator: Pia Wamsler)

The early Gothic former Minorite church of St. Ulrich was secularised in the 18th century. Today it is an atmospheric show and listening venue for various festivals, concerts and sound art works.
