Francke Foundations

We invite you to join us for proven crowd-pullers, new event formats, family events, scientific events and education & participation programmes. Follow the Link and find the full programme in the annual magazine or in the calendar on this page.

The annual exhibition at the Francke Foundations is dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the reopening in the Historic Orphanage and presents current topics of research and thus exciting approaches for today's visitors to the Baroque collection of the 18th century.

Experience an impressive immersive light installation and extraordinary sound performance in the Freylinghausen Hall, discover our creative family program and exciting short tours through the Cabinet of Artefacts and Natural Curiosities and our annual exhibition!

In the tradition of August Hermann Francke, we are committed to humanity and also stand up for all those who need our help. We see education, social participation and sustainable action as the most important keys to a tolerant and cosmopolitan society.

Professional expertise, provenance research and the development of future scenarios for the presentation and research of the unique Early Universal Museums: We are delighted to host this year's annual conference of the Alliance of Early Universal Museums!
