Wikingergold. Schatzpolitik seit 1800

Traveling exhibition with digital presentation

Treasures from the Viking Age (approx. 800-1100) are repeatedly found in the Baltic region. It was the same even earlier. When these treasures are found, complex processes of appropriation begin: Who is allowed to keep the "Viking gold"? Where will it be displayed? Who identifies with it? Who distances themselves from it? And how do these processes change over time? The exhibition "Treasure Politics" shows that the appropriation of cultural heritage and its demarcation are politically charged.

An exhibition by the Interdisciplinary Research Center Baltic Sea Region (IFZO), University of Greifswald in cooperation with the Stralsund Museum.
