During one sunny week in April, 15 curators from Jewish museums across Europe took part in the brand new incarnation of the Advanced Curatorial Education Programme. For the first time, the programme was not just based in one city, but it rather took the form of a curatorial expedition, spanning the German regions of Bavaria and Swabia and the Austrian region Vorarlberg. Each night, the group stayed in a new town, and each day was filled with museums and other sites of Jewish interest.
A major theme of the seminar was Jewish built heritage on location. The group was able to see numerous examples of Jewish built heritage in the south German country side, including synagogues in Memmelsdorf, Binswangen, Kriegshaber, Schwäbisch Gmünd, Ulm, and Baisingen, as well as the branches of Jewish Museum of Franconia in Schwabach and Schnaittach, located in a former Jewish home and synagogue, respectively.
In addition, the participants got to visit the Jewish museums of the south German country side, the Jewish Museum of Franconia in Fürth and the Jewish Culture Museum Augsburg-Schwaben, where they were given curatorial tours of the museums by the directors.
The trip ended in Hohenems, at the foot of the Austrian Alps, where the group visited the Jewish cemetery and the former Hohenems synagogue and mikve, explored the Jewish museum’s permanent and temporary exhibits, and enjoyed a farewell dinner in a restaurant housed in a former Jewish school.
