“Colonial Biographies from Lichtenberg” – New Workshop Exhibition

The Museum Lichtenberg presents a new workshop exhibition that explores the lesser-known connections between the Lichtenberg district and German colonial history. While previous projects focused on local estates, this exhibition centers on the individual life stories of people from the area who were active in Africa and Asia. Visitors can discover the biographies of a diverse group, including a politician, a nurse, and a veterinarian. The exhibit sheds light on how global colonial structures were reflected in the local community. It is a thought-provoking display for those interested in local history and its global entanglements.
