Presence in Berlin - Now "Weimar Room" at the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation

The Classik Foundation Weimar will be present in the capital in the future. A "Weimar Room" is said to represent the focus areas of the second largest cultural foundation at the main cultural institutions of the Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz in Berlin. For this purpose, a constantly changing communication object will be used at various locations of the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation in Berlin in the coming years.

Info about "Bauhaus and National Socialism"

To begin with, the infinitely expandable modular construction system is installed in the State Library at the Unter den Linden location. Here, information is provided about the exhibition "Bauhaus and National Socialism," which can still be seen at the Museum Neues Weimar, Bauhaus Museum, and Schiller-Museum in Weimar until September 15.

Thuringia's Minister-President Bodo Ramelow (Left) called the "Weimar Room" in a statement a symbolic milestone for cultural exchange and "a visible link between the Federal Government and the State, a window and telescope at the same time." Ulrike Lorenz, President of the Classik Foundation Weimar, spoke of a long-cherished wish of the foundation. "We want to make our work in Berlin better known and to win over the Berlin public for Weimar."
