Weil am Rhein is characterized by movement, work and encounters. People work here in professions that connect and shape the region: Construction workers on large building sites, train drivers in international freight transport, police officers or care workers in retirement homes. Others are firmly rooted in Weil: farmers, craftsmen, nursery school teachers, retailers, administrative staff - they provide for everyday life here. The exhibition shows: Work in Weil is diverse, crosses borders and has changed over the course of time, thus also changing the appearance of the town. The work clothing worn also fulfills different functions; it can be protection, a status symbol or an expression of identity. Around 30 museums from France, Germany and Switzerland are participating in a joint network project under the working title "zuhause unterwegs - ici et ailleurs".
