Museum fuer Franken, Wurzburg

The museum in Franconia has become more attractive. Since 1.1.2017, admission to the special exhibition on Sundays is only 1€. "Seven boxes of Jewish material" is presented with dignity, tells of what has passed, but also of what has remained. It is clear that racism will never again be seen. The Museum is for 1€ on Sundays, including special exhibitions like "Seven Cases with Jewish Material". The objects are bilingually presented in a worthy, precious way. The stories behind the objects enlighten us about what has been lost, but also what remains: No racism, never anywhere.

This museum occupies some rooms of the ancient fortress of the city. There are many pieces, also very beautiful, that are on display, but it is the room dedicated to Tilman Riemschneider that, alone, is worth the visit. This artist, a contemporary of Michelangelo, did not use Carrara marbles; I don't think they were even available to him. Instead, he used wood and, apart from that, his works have nothing but nothing to envy to that of the Italian master. Among his clients he had no popes, but for his and our good fortune he had that allowed him to give evidence and testimony of his excellence. Absolutely to see and admire!
