WORKSHOP: ErinnerungskulturEN Eine Veranstaltung im Rahmen des Jubiläums 60 Jahre Museumsdienst

In the organizer's words:

Culture of remembranceEN An event as part of the 60th anniversary of the Museum Service

Remembering and forgetting - collectively and individually: What do we want to remember? What is important to us as a society - what is important to me personally? How is public memory shaped by monuments in urban space?

The workshop poses questions on which the participants have to position themselves: as an introduction through various general impulses - on the way in small groups to different memorials in the urban space - in the final presentation and discussion in plenary.

With the discussion about the equestrian statue of Wilhelm II, the stumbling blocks in the city, the EL-DE House, the public commemoration of Edith Stein and the memory of the NSU attack in Probsteigasse, the workshop will focus on very different facets of the culture of remembrance.

Note: Please bring your own smartphones for navigation and further information on the way of the small groups through the immediate urban space.

Due to the limited number of participants, we recommend registering in advance. If there are still places available, you will be informed shortly beforehand at the meeting point.
