Exposition temporaire
Terroir & Produits Locaux

Free

For the very first time, an exhibition analyses history, evolution and the stakes behind regional costumes worn in Hanau Country. The Museum of the Country of Hanau presents a large exhibition on the regional costume, thanks to an important construction of the collections on nearly 3,000 textile pieces - between 2022 and 2024 - having studied the rediscovered treasures. From the pieces of clothing worn on the territory, their formal evolutions and specificities, the exhibition is interested in users and functions behind the variety of fabrics, embroidery and infinity of the techniques used. Can textiles trace life paths? How did the black-knoted hair come about? The reappropriations, artistic, historical or even folkloric, will also allow us to grasp the richness, longevity and inspiration of this local textile history. Nearly 300 works are presented in the temporary exhibition space, with a large majority rotating mid-term. This is the occasion to admire new pieces coming to renew the speech, offering almost a second exhibition.
