Führung das öffentliche Grün auf Englisch

The group exhibition Das öffentliche Grün is dedicated to Bochum’s Stadtpark, which is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year. As one of the oldest publicly accessible parks in the Ruhr region, it was laid out in 1876 on the site of the former Allmende, the city’s communal pastureland. Where cows, sheep and goats once grazed, people now stroll, play, flirt, dream and much more. The exhibition extends beyond the museum into the park, viewing it as a multi-layered biotope full of stories and asking how we share space and resources today.
