Venedig sehen und…

Schloss Britz hosts an exhibition that traces the evolution of Venice's image from the romantic ideals of the late 19th century to the challenges of modern tourism. Through a selection of historical exhibits and contemporary artworks, the show explores why the city has become a synonym for both beauty and decay. Since the fall of the Republic and its annexation in 1797, Venice has struggled with economic decline, yet it remains a powerful symbol in the global imagination. The exhibition highlights the tension between the dream of Venice and the reality of 'tourist overkill'. It is a thoughtful examination of how we perceive world-famous cultural landmarks.
