Spurensuche V: Jüdisches Leben in Hannover zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts

In the organizer's words:

A villa tells story(s)

Guided tour with Dr. Birte Rogacki-Thiemann

In our SPURENSUCHE series, we will guide you through the magnificent Villa Seligmann in the heart of Hanover. Since its reopening in 2012, Villa Seligmann has become a beacon of Jewish music and culture. It offers an international forum for people to come together, regardless of their origin, religion or cultural background. Renowned experts give lectures on various topics and allow you to take a look into the past and behind the scenes. The historical building and, of course, the history of the Seligmann family take center stage.

In part 5 of the event series, Dr. Birte Rogacki-Thiemann (Lower Saxony State Office for the Preservation of Monuments) will guide you through the Villa Seligmann. She will talk about the house from a historical and conservation perspective, with a special focus on Jewish life in the early. 20th century.
