Museums evoking non-European civilizations and the lifestyles, beliefs and themes that unite humankind.
It is one of Germany's most important ethnological museums: over 60 000 coins referring to extra-European civilizations. Ways of life, belief, identity of themes that unite humanity. A presentation on an exhibition surface of 3,600 square meters invites visitors to discover the wide variety of ways in which different cultures in the world deal with these issues. The thematic complex "Understanding the World" reveals the European vision of other cultures, as reflected in travel stories and the arts. The theme complex "Shaping the World" familiarizes visitors with different concepts of life. Why was life in a tipi so practical? Why have Maori been tattooed and why do tattoos make their return? What is the purpose of ancestral figures? Compare cultures to illustrate similarities and differences. It is a concept of modern and pleasant exhibition designed to promote tolerance and curiosity of visitors. A museum very well done and always close to scientific knowledge.
