15 Years of Schlossmuseum: A jubilee that brings Braunschweig's court history to life
With the anniversary exhibition 15 Years of Schlossmuseum, the Schlossmuseum Braunschweig invites you on an interactive journey through memory, collection, and residence history. The exhibition not only celebrates a birthday but also transforms the museum visit into an aesthetic art experience with participatory stations, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and an atmospheric approach to the Braunschweig court.
A museum as a living space for memories
Since its opening, the Schlossmuseum has established itself as a place where history is not stagnant but becomes palpable in space. The reconstructed Residenzschloss provides the impressive backdrop for an exhibition that artfully intertwines the past, present, and museum education. Visitors encounter courtly culture not as an abstract narrative but as a spatial experience.
Participate, discover, curate
At the center of the exhibition are numerous participatory stations. Paintings can be assembled as giant cube puzzles, selected highlight exhibits from past exhibitions become visible again, and guests can curate a small exhibition themselves. This form of active engagement with the works makes the tour particularly appealing: The museum opens up as a place of cultural education where seeing, ordering, and interpreting intertwine.
A photo wall with a throne, a wish wall for the future of the museum, and a memory wall reflecting its history condense the anniversary into a multifaceted panorama. This creates an exhibition atmosphere that is playful, historically rooted, and visually striking.
Focus on castle history
The Schlossmuseum conveys the history of the Braunschweig Residenzschloss as a time journey through courtly representation and cultural change. The rooms of the house, the architecture of the enfilade, and the staging of collection objects provide the special exhibition with depth. Anyone interested in museum history, cultural history, and curatorial concepts will find a multifaceted example of modern exhibition practice in a historical setting.
Accompanying program for the curious and families
The anniversary exhibition is accompanied by a program of guided tours and other activities. Additionally, there is a drawing competition under the motto My Schlossmuseum, inviting children and young people to express their creative view of the museum. Thus, the exhibition becomes not only a venue for historical reflection but also a lively place of cultural participation.

Conclusion: This anniversary exhibition combines historical aura, playful communication, and curatorial intelligence into a tour that leaves a lasting impression.
