Look over the shoulder of the conservation and restoration team at work. Accompanying event for the exhibition "Everything OK? Stories from the collection" at the Zug Castle Museum. Questions are expressly welcome. Those interested can gain an insight into the exciting conservation and restoration work carried out by the experts. About the exhibition "Everything OK? Stories from the collection" in general: What do we do with all the things that surround us? What do they do to us? Many of us have the urge to collect, sort and show things. They help us remember, organize knowledge and trigger emotions. In short: with these things we make the world our own. Around 50,000 such things lie dormant in the collection of the Zug Castle Museum. They offer access to the past and store a wide variety of knowledge. But which memories and which knowledge should the museum preserve? How did the objects find their way into the collection? And: How does the museum deal with these objects, how and why are they looked after and preserved for future generations? The exhibition "Everything OK? Stories from the collection" explores these questions and looks for answers by showing a cross-section of the treasures that are usually hidden. The objects come together in unusual ensembles. This creates new connections, perspectives and stories. Some objects reveal their own history. With each one, knowledge and meaning grow and new doors and insights into the past open again and again. The variety of stories contributes to understanding the present.
