International Museum Day: Baden-Württemberg tells its story
As part of Museum Day 2026 under the motto "Baden-Württemberg erzählt" (Baden-Württemberg tells its story), we are shedding light on an explosive chapter of German-Baden history. The focus is on the Baden statesman Franz von Roggenbach and his involvement in one of the major political crises of the Bismarck era.
Museum director Dominik Baiker tells the story using selected objects that were once in the possession of statesman Franz von Roggenbach - naturally in the museum's Roggenbach Hall.
