On the occasion of its 1250th anniversary, the German village of Oberelsungen invited its "native son" Dr Falco Pfalzgraf to deliver a public lecture on the local dialect; a unique variant of Low German with both Westphalian and Eastphalian features. Due to the high turnout of attendees from the village and surrounding area, the event had to be relocated to the church, the only venue in the village that could accommodate over 150 people. Dr Pfalzgraf's lecture was warmly received, followed by a lively 40-minute discussion.
