You, life and finiteness

Update 2.0

Do you remember your own mortality? And if so, how?
How do you communicate with deceased loved ones?
Do you believe in life after death? What might it look like?
How do you imagine the soul and does it even exist?
What is it like in the world's cemeteries?
Have you ever listened into the earth?

The Museum of Sepulchral Culture has been dedicated to the topics of dying, death, burial, mourning and remembrance for over 30 years. In 2026, it will be temporarily closed, remodelled and renovated. The goal: a new permanent exhibition. In the meantime, until the reopening, we are now focussing on current developments, content and questions. We want to find new exhibits and present existing exhibits in such a way that they can also tell your story.

With in between. You, life and finiteness, we are preparing our new permanent exhibition. Since the opening of this special temporary exhibition, we have already received exciting responses from you. In the second update, we invite you to help shape and get involved. Discover exhibits from the fine and applied arts as well as cultural-historical objects. Immerse yourself in topics of sepulchral culture and take a stand on them. You won't be alone: the programme includes lectures, discussions, readings and artistic interventions - for children and adults alike.

Come along to our field of experimentation.
It's about you, your life and finiteness.
