Interpretative Authorities in the Network Jewish Franconia

On November 15, 2026, the Jewish Museum Franconia in Fürth invites you to the 2026 conference of the Network Jewish Franconia. The focus is on the multifaceted topic of interpretative authorities – a central question for museums, archives, synagogues memorial sites, and educational institutions that convey Jewish history and culture.

Professional Exchange on Jewish History

The Network Jewish Franconia is primarily coordinated by the Jewish Museum Franconia. It makes museums and synagogues memorial sites in Franconia visible together, promotes professional exchange, and strengthens the connection between museums, archives, educational institutions, and local research.

Who Tells History?

The conference addresses the question of how historical content is selected, categorized, and publicly communicated. Interpretative authorities touch on scientific perspectives as well as curatorial decisions, memory culture, and cultural education. Speakers from museums, archives, and university research bring together different experiences and academic approaches.

Insights, Discussions, and Networking

Conferences and training sessions form an important platform for the network. The event connects professional impulses with personal encounters and opens space for discussions about responsibility, sources, memory, and the representation of Jewish life in Franconia. Attendees can expect a concentrated event day at the exhibition and educational institution Jewish Museum Franconia.

A Unique Art Experience

Even though the conference is not an exhibition opening, a special exhibition atmosphere is created in the museum: The examination of works, historical testimonies, and museum mediation form the cultural context for engaging with Jewish history. The aesthetic experience of the museum space combines with scientific reflection and makes cultural education experienceable as a living process.

Conclusion

The 2026 conference of the Network Jewish Franconia is aimed at all who are interested in Jewish history, memory culture, museum work, and historical mediation. Anyone wanting to critically question interpretative authorities, learn new perspectives, and experience professional exchange in Franconia will find an inspiring place for encounters and insights at the Jewish Museum Franconia.
