Eröffnung der Sonderausstellung “Fritz Bauer – Die Prozesse”

In the organizer's words:

Far too few people in Stuttgart know that the Jewish lawyer Fritz Bauer is a son of the city of Stuttgart and the exhibition "Fritz Bauer - The Trials" aims to change this. The exhibition is a hybrid of a classic exhibition and a learning space and is aimed at both individual visitors and groups of young people. Special workshops are offered for the latter, in which they can interactively engage with Fritz Bauer and the exhibition. Between March 10 and 26, 2025, the workshop offer will be supplemented by the escape room "Fixing the Boat - Finding identity" by the Service Center for Anti-Discrimination Work, Advice on Racism and Anti-Semitism, which can be booked by school classes and private groups of up to six people at the same time in the StadtPalais.

In cooperation with the Israelite Religious Community of Württemberg and the State Government Commissioner against Anti-Semitism, curator Zino Preis not only looks at Bauer's significant contribution to coming to terms with the crimes of the Holocaust in the post-war period of the Federal Republic of Germany, but above all at Fritz Bauer's comparatively unknown work as a district judge in Stuttgart in the 1920s.
