.The writer Walter Kempowski set a literary monument to his hometown in the novels of the German Chronicle. Extensive knowledge, collections and memories were incorporated into a literary portrayal of bourgeois life in the first half of the 20th century in a northern German city. The joint exhibition of the Rostock Museum of Cultural History and the Kempowski Archive Rostock is a welcome opportunity to follow in the footsteps of the writer's literary work and to trace the work on the way to the successful novels.
Curator: Dr. Kartrin Möller-Funck (Kempowski Archive Rostock)
