Overview

• The Deutsches Historisches Museum in Berlin plans to run the show from November 14, 2025, to June 7, 2026.
• The exhibition spans roughly 800 years of Central European human–nature relations, reaching from medieval contexts to 1970s environmental and anti-nuclear movements.
• It opens with Hildegard von Bingen’s concept of divine “Grünkraft” and explores landscape change linked to innovations such as the three-field system.
• Case studies include the Tambora eruption’s effects in 1816’s “Year without a Summer” and the subsequent founding of the agricultural research institute in Hohenheim.
• Voss structures the show into five non-linear rooms and emphasizes a shifting set of perspectives rather than a single narrative of environmental decline.
