A moving conclusion for an exhibition about Jewish history, present, and memory

The finissage of the special exhibition With One's Own Voice. 75 Years of the Central Council of Jews in Germany at the Municipal Museum Braunschweig takes place on September 20, 2026, once again immersing visitors in an exhibition that distinctly, historically grounded, and with great sensitivity makes visible Jewish life in Germany. The evening connects exhibition, conversation, and concert – transforming the museum at the House on Löwenwall into a place for reflection, cultural education, and aesthetic experience.

An exhibition with historical depth

The exhibition was created in close collaboration between the Municipal Museum Braunschweig and the Central Council of Jews in Germany. It illuminates three-quarters of a century of Jewish self-organization, societal participation, and democratic responsibility. The accompanying events address themes such as memory culture, religious practice, community development, anti-Semitism, pastoral care, and dialogue with the urban society.

Finissage with sound and resonance

At the conclusion, visitors can look forward to a concert by the band Folkadu. The ensemble combines Jewish musical styles with a distinctive arrangement of vocals, oud, accordion, trumpet, and shofar. This creates a musical space that does not separate tradition and present but audibly intertwines them. This conclusion creates a special exhibition atmosphere between reflection and sound, particularly for an art experience in the museum.

Municipal Museum Braunschweig as a place of cultural education

The Municipal Museum Braunschweig sees itself as a house with two locations and a broad educational mandate. In addition to collections on art, culture, and city history, the museum offers guided tours, educational programs, and audio guides. The House on Löwenwall hosts special exhibitions of international significance and is known for its visitor-friendly infrastructure. The exhibition thus fits into a house that consistently thinks about museum education, curation, and public mediation together.
