International Museum Day in Marienfelde
Arrive - sounds and voices that connect
International Museum Day offers the opportunity to combine history, the present and social dialog. Under the motto "Arriving - sounds and voices that connect", the focus is on the topic of arrival and new beginnings, central experiences both for refugees of the German division and for people arriving in Berlin today.
Music, voices and joint discussions serve as connecting elements. The event combines exhibition offerings, personal encounters and musical impulses to invite visitors to reflect on hope, home and arrival.
Program
Language café table "Bella Ciao, Ciao, Ciao!" 12 - 15:30Visitors are invited to get to know the spirit of the language café at the memorial site and take a seat together at a large table.Over coffee, snacks and conversation, we collect songs of hope from all over the world together: Which songs give people strength? What music reminds us of new beginnings or arrivals? Which songs connect people across borders? Selected songs are listened to or played together. The result is an open collection of international songs of hope.
Guided tour "Herumspaziert" 1 p.m.A tour of the grounds of the former reception facility provides an overview of the history of the site and the experiences of the people who arrived here.
Guided tour "Flight in divided Germany" 2:30 pmThe guided tour sheds light on the flight movements from the GDR and the role of the Marienfelde emergency reception center as the first station in the West.
Live music on the forecourtAtmospheric handpan sounds accompany the event day on the forecourt. The music creates an open and quiet space to arrive, listen and linger.
Video installation "New Home"The music video "New Home" is presented as an installation in the permanent exhibition. It focuses on arrival, hope and new beginnings and combines the historical experiences of the site with contemporary perspectives.Translated with DeepL
