The exhibition opening will take place on Friday, September 18, at 6 p.m., with the curators in attendance. You are cordially invited!
The Revolution of 1848–49 was also a women’s revolution throughout Europe. They sought to break the invisible chains that governed their lives. They fought against social hardship and for political change—and rebelled against an order that oppressed them socially and legally.
This traveling exhibition examines the realities of women’s lives—caught between responsibility and disenfranchisement—and how they shaped society despite these constraints, both during the revolution and beyond. For Offenburg, the exhibition has been expanded to include women from the local community who participated in the revolution here.
We are presenting the exhibition in cooperation with Forum 1848 at the Cemetery of the March Martyrs in Berlin and with the Memorial Site for the Freedom Movements in German History in Rastatt.
The exhibition is open to the public through March 2, 2027.
Admission to the exhibition opening is free for everyone.
