Francke Foundations

The Francke Foundations are the first institution in Germany to successfully complete the new global »Preliminary Assessment« process, supported by the Federal Foreign Office and the State of Saxony-Anhalt.

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.

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.

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!
