Schaffensland in Koblenz: History comes to life here
With Schaffensland – People. Stories. Work., the state museum Koblenz opens a remarkable look at 200 years of Rhineland-Palatinate in the cultural center Fortress Ehrenbreitstein. The exhibition combines original objects, spatial installations, and media access to create an intense event experience that not only explains the past but makes it tangible.
A tour through work, everyday life, and new beginnings
On approximately 1,200 square meters, the permanent exhibition takes visitors through living worlds from the 19th century to the present day. Agriculture, industrialization, research, tourism, and modern work environments enter into an exciting dialogue here. Personal stories come into play, making historical developments tangible and giving the exhibition a strong audience atmosphere.
Originals, installations, and strong images
Particularly defining is the mixture of authentic exhibits and carefully designed scenes.
