Permanent exhibitions
Discover the everyday and cultural history of Schleswig-Holstein. In our two large permanent exhibitions, you can find out what has shaped and characterised our federal state from the 16th to the 20th century.
Country. People. Life - in Schleswig-Holstein in the 20th century
The new exhibition "Ein JAHR100 in Schleswig-Holstein. Land. Leute. Leben" ("A YEAR100 in Schleswig-Holstein. Country. People. Life") invites us to recall the 20th century - as we lived and experienced it every day. On 920 square metres, the show presents around 350 objects - familiar and curious, banal and historically significant - from the school cone and the business bicycle to a shoe x-ray device and the torch for the Olympic flame in 1972. The objects and their stories are staged like highlights. A journey of discovery into the recent past that will evoke emotions and memories for many. MORE…
The rurally shaped Schleswig-Holstein from the 16th to the 20th century

Farmhouses, cottages and barns, an old pharmacy, a fairground. They originate from very different parts of the state. And so there is hardly a person from Schleswig-Holstein who does not associate personal memories or even a favourite place with them. MORE…
