What did the church mean to the people who lived around it? The fact that the church in the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Period was not merely a house of God is the theme of a new narrative trail through the permanent exhibition “Berlin’s Center”—and thus also the theme of this tour.
Using seven objects from the permanent exhibition as examples, the church is presented as a place of urban community-building and as a place of exclusion.
Leon Pschierer, research fellow and curator of the exhibition, will introduce the exhibition project and its background.
