To mark Open Monument Day, the Bergen Town Museum on Rügen will be open on Sunday from 11 am to 4 pm and welcomes visitors. The listed baroque house was built in the first half of the 18th century as a residential building for the ladies of the "Noble Convent" in Bergen and today houses private apartments as well as the town museum.
The permanent exhibition "From the Stone Age to the City" with its high-quality copies of the "Blue Tooth Treasure", the medieval linen cloth and its pictorial depictions made of silk and linen and the impressive, gilded replica of a Romanesque chalice invites visitors to take a relaxing stroll through the history of Bergen and the Island of Rügen. In the depot exhibition "War and Remembrance", visitors can get a brief overview of war-related events before and on the Island of Rügen. In the special exhibition "A. Hoge. Bergen.Blicke", the well-known graphic artist and painter Annelise Hoge dedicates expressive photographs to the eponymous town, which was her home for more than 40 years.
