Product details
Third volume of the Molsdorf trilogy This book contains the authentic memories of the Molsdorf SCHLOSSKINDER (castle children) and their educators who lived in the former princely-countric house in Thuringia in the 1950s. Converted into a children's home, the culturally and historically valuable building was saved from imminent demolition by order of the Soviet military administration. The long-term project of coming to terms with this chapter of the castle's history brought the former children's home residents together repeatedly from 2017 to 2019 and culminated in an exhibition with historical photographs and a video work by the Swiss remembrance artist Mats Staub in what is now the Molsdorf Castle Museum. The transcript of the video work - a kind of dialogical compilation of the interviews with the former educators - is part of the present publication, as are various media snippets of memories of the children aged 3-6 at the time. These periods of life fall into the era of the early German-German division after the end of the Second World War. Thus, the lavishly designed book preserves excerpts from a "larger" historical chapter in addition to the personal stories. It also contains a partial reprint of a photo album of a former educator and is made available free of charge to the former residents of the home.
