City on the Border Permanent Exhibition

Using a multidisciplinary approach, the CITY ON THE BORDER exhibition goes beyond established national frames, presenting the stories of families, individuals and communities. Its aim is not to recount the known historical narrative but rather to offer an insight into personal experiences, highlighting the past on a deeply personal and emotional level. In this manner, history is told through the stories and experiences of those who have lived in this area, showcasing their hopes and fears.

The exhibition is structured chronologically, methodologically drawing on oral history and incorporating objects and video testimonies as part of the narrative. Visitors can experience the past through different perspectives and their own perception of past events. A rich pedagogical-andragogical programme with guided tours, movie nights, literary and art talks, and an interactive format, completes the exhibition, enabling in-depth exploration and multilayered understanding.
