What traces of colonial and National Socialist histories and crimes can be found in the exhibitions of today’s Humboldt Forum? In the collaborative educational project ‘Intertwined memory(s)?’, which has been running since 2024 international partners, experts from Berlin’s urban society and employees of the Ethnological Museum of the National Museums in Berlin and the Humboldt Forum Foundation at the Berlin Palace are reflecting on ways to engage with memories of the Shoah and the crimes of colonialism from multiple perspectives. Concrete traces in the collections of the Ethnological Museum and the history of the site of the Berlin Palace as well as different perspectives on objects and biographies are part of concrete educational formats (student workshops and guided tours) at the Humboldt Forum.
Two one-hour guided tours in English and German present different traces, biographies, objects and places of colonial and Nazi history.
