What is private and what is public when your own family embodies the state? When marriages become foreign policy and pregnancies are matters of state?


For over five centuries, Berlin Palace was the home and workplace of the Hohenzollern family. As a princely dynasty, the transfer of political power in Brandenburg, Prussia, and later in the German Empire depended on the birth of their own offspring. Yet it is mostly only the men who are talked about – and thus only half the truth is told.

The tour takes the exhibition intervention “Relevant to the System: Women in Ruling Families” as its starting point to shed light on the neglected female side of Prussia’s political development and Berlin’s history.
