Description

Eliah Sakakushev-von Bismarck, Managing Director of Villa Seligmann – lecture and house tour

In this search for traces, our guests are given lively insights behind the scenes of the Villa Seligmann as a cultural institution and former family residence of Siegmund and Johanna Seligmann. The focus of this tour is the diverse definition of Jewish culture and its identity, both historically and in the present day. In his lecture, Eliah Sakakushev-von Bismarck uses historical developments before and after the civilizational rupture of the Shoah to shed light on the tensions between identity and belonging, integration and inculturation, religion and community of values. This is accompanied by a critical examination of developments in Jewish life and its social perception. Other topics include the architecture and art of the house, the family history, the organ and the organizational structure of Villa Seligmann today.

Eliah Sakakushev-von Bismarck has been managing and program director of Villa Seligmann since 2018.

In our “Searching for Traces” series, we take you on a tour of the magnificent Villa Seligmann in the heart of Hanover. Since its reopening in 2012, Villa Seligmann has become a beacon of Jewish music and culture. It offers an international forum for people to meet, regardless of their origin, religion or cultural background. Renowned experts will give presentations on various topics and allow you to take a look into the past and behind the scenes. The historical building and, of course, the history of the Seligmann family take center stage.

Admission 15 (reduced 8) euros. House tour with limited seating. Admission is open from 30 minutes before the start of the event.

We kindly point out that photos and videos will be taken during this event, which will be published on our website and/or social media channels and used for press work. By participating, visitors to this event agree to this.
