The Salmen is a contemporary witness and a cultural monument of national importance. It has an eventful history: built as an inn with a banqueting hall above the stable building, made famous by the proclamation of the 13th demands of the people in 1847, used as a synagogue by the Jewish community of Offenburg until the National Socialists desecrated the prayer hall on November 10, 1938.
Our permanent exhibition takes visitors through the eventful history of the building and also shows how it relates to our present day and our understanding of democracy today.
