Future (t) Dreams at the Augustinermuseum: Discover Freiburg's Museum in Transition
How open can a museum be, and what role will it play in society in the future? During the tour Future (t) Dreams at the Augustinermuseum Freiburg, students of Empirical Cultural Studies connect the exhibition Future (t) Dreams – Museum in Transition with personal city stories, historical insights, and new ideas for the future.
From Monastery to Modern Museum
The tour leads through the dynamic history of the building – from a medieval monastery to changing uses as a theater and potato storage, to the present-day museum. Architecture, urban history, and cultural heritage enter into a vibrant dialogue. The tour makes visible how a place has changed over centuries while still preserving its identity.
Personal City Stories and Unusual Perspectives
In the FREI_Raum, participants encounter the museum not only as an exhibition space but as a vibrant part of Freiburg. Unconventional museum excursions and personal references open up new perspectives on the city and its history. Thus, the city tour in the museum becomes a unique discovery experience with cultural enrichment.
Thinking Together About the Future
The tour invites participants to share their own future spaces and wishes. The central question is how museums can continue to open up for different people and remain socially relevant. The exchange makes the tour an inspiring encounter among local history, present, and future.
