Kurzvorträge: 100 Jahre Jahrtausendausstellung der Rheinlande: Objekte und Persönlichkeiten. Mit Dr. Christiane Twiehaus

In the organizer's words:

Against the backdrop of the occupation of the Rhineland after the First World War, the Millennium Exhibition of the Rhineland took place in Cologne in 1925 - the title alone was intended to emphasize a deep connection with a long German history.
The exhibition included a section entitled "Jews and Judaism in the Rhineland", which was overseen by the Cologne rabbi Adolf Kober together with the art historian Elisabeth Moses. As a natural part of the overall exhibition, both conveyed the affiliation of Judaism to the Rhineland and to German history.
The short lecture presents selected objects and participants and traces their stories all the way to the USA.

This short lecture will be repeated several times between 16:00 and 19:00. You can join us at any time.
