Overview
- The detailed concept, presented Tuesday at Albrechtsburg Meißen, outlines a 2029 state exhibition and anchors it at a site often called Saxony's cradle.
- The show centers on the question “What is actually Saxon?” and connects eras from the Middle Ages and Baroque to industrialization, National Socialism, the GDR, and today.
- Organizers will start this year with social media, events, and local projects to gather residents’ stories for a common narrative by 2029.
- Culture Minister Barbara Klepsch said the exhibition seeks to reflect identity and belonging and stressed that everyday people shape history.
- Minister President Michael Kretschmer called the exhibition an invitation to take part across the state.
