XXXV Congress of German Art Historians 2019

Thank you very much, Göttingen!

April 3, 2019
The 35th Congress of German Art Historians in Göttingen was an extraordinary success!
Around 1,000 participants attended the congress over a total of six days. The #arthistocamp made the prelude on Tuesday with extremely positive resonance. All sections and forums, the on-site visits and excursions as well as the rich evening programme offered many opportunities for professional exchange, lively discussions and new encounters.
Many thanks to all participants, especially to the hosts in Göttingen and the many student helpers!

Academic collections of the University of Göttingen

The University of Göttingen maintains one of the most important academic collections in Germany. The objects in the collections are a central component of current academic knowledge production and hold a wealth of potential for future research. As the material academic heritage, they are used for illustration purposes in teaching. They are of great historical interest as a testimony to the history of knowledge and the history of science and scholarship, epitomising the self-image of the university.
