Multi-Day Seminars
The Educational Services team at the Ravensbrück Memorial Museum will be pleased to work with you to design a multi-day seminar tailored to your group. These programmes go beyond a standard guided tour or the traditional project work aimed at school groups, offering space for in-depth study, critical discussion, and creative engagement with history.
In addition to exploring the history of the Ravensbrück camp complex, seminars can focus on topics such as:
- Written testimonies by survivors of the Ravensbrück women’s concentration camp
- Female and male perpetrators in Ravensbrück
- The role of the Ravensbrück women’s concentration camp within the system of concentration and extermination camps
- Ravensbrück in the cultures of remembrance of different countries
- Blind spots in remembrance – marginalisation and attribution
- Ravensbrück in film
Methods and Media
Seminars may include the creation of multimedia presentations. For this purpose, digital cameras and ten iPads are available to participants. Working on a presentation-oriented product typically involves several steps – developing a concept, designing a storyboard, filming, and editing. One group may also document the work of the others on video, making it possible to record both the historical content (thematic focus) and the process of working with it (activity and process orientation).
Media-based programmes require detailed advance coordination between the Educational Services team and the seminar facilitators.
Booking and Fees
Fees for guided educational programmes depend on group size and, in the case of multi-day projects, on the level of support agreed in advance. Charges are based on the [Schedule of Fees of the Brandenburg Memorials Foundation] (link).
