Among the greatest treasures to be admired in the Oranienburg Palace Museum are huge tapestries from the 17th century. With great patience and skill, the weavers depicted entire stories on these tapestries: The Elector on horseback in a battle or princesses enjoying tea and coffee in the theater. Everything can be seen clearly, yet it consists of countless interwoven silk and wool threads.
How is silk created? Why were garments in red more expensive than others? How did weavers manage to get entire stories onto huge carpets? During the tour of the palace, children and parents will learn many interesting facts about precious fabrics and textiles in the days of the lady of the house, Louise Henriette of Orange.
Afterwards, the museum workshop offers the opportunity to try out the craft of weaving. With the help of weaving boards, thick wool can be made into seat cushions and bags. With finer wool, smaller bags can be made on three table looms and one high loom. Depending on stamina, desire and time, everyone goes home with their own weaving.
Artistic direction: Birgit Zehlike, weaver
