HENRY - WORLD INFLUENCER NO. 1: Die Geschichte der Familie Kissinger aus Fürth

In the organizer's words:

The exhibition focuses on the Kissinger family with their Fürth roots and their moving fate and traces the Kissingers' path since the beginning of the 20th century. It spans from the happy childhood of the two brothers Henry and Walter in Fürth, the bitter loss of their home under National Socialism and their new start in the USA, to the remarkable careers of the two men in science, politics and business and their repeated return to their home town since the 1950s. On display are previously unknown testimonies - especially from Fürth's city history - but also unique artifacts and touching private exhibits, such as some personal objects that the family was able to take with them on their flight to the USA and which are now kept by the grandchildren and great-grandchildren as special mementos. In addition, everyday family objects, audio documents, photographs and documents tell a captivating story and invite visitors to get to know the man, politician and world commentator Henry Kissinger from a completely new perspective and to experience him in interaction with his closest family.

The exhibition can be visited until the end of 2024.
