29th of April, online 9:00-16:30 CET, Workshop of the Northern Sea Maritime Museums’ Network, organized by the German Maritime Museum, the German Naval Museum, the German Port Museum, the Maritime Museum Rotterdam, Stavanger Maritime Museum)
With remaining a major part of shipwrecks including munition on the ground of the sea a wide range of questions remains about how important we judge the heritage of maritime war and peace: The ecological consequences of these items have been just begun to be explored and put into the public and political conscience. On the other hand, shipwrecks also present very often graves and memorial sites, which reveal a certain cultural attitude (or total neglect). Finally exhibiting remnants of war and peace of sea in museums connects our collection to present and future political developments.
