The Galerie Morgenland, founded in 1978 as a neighborhood cultural center in Hamburg-Eimsbüttel, is a diverse center for art, history, and culture. Since 1983, the institution has focused on the history workshop and the Galerie Morgenland.
The main mission of the Galerie Morgenland and the History Workshop Eimsbüttel is to promote public awareness and interest in the history and culture of the Eimsbüttel neighborhood. Through the variety of offerings, a vibrant and active community is to be fostered, engaging with its environment and its past. The institution places great value on volunteer engagement and the participation of local artists and historians[2][4].
The Galerie Morgenland and the History Workshop Eimsbüttel are supported by funds from the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, ensuring their sustainability and long-term existence. By promoting local artists and preserving historical documents and photos, the institution makes an important contribution to the cultural and historical preservation of the neighborhood. The regular events and exhibitions help to foster an active and informed community and preserve the cultural heritage of Eimsbüttel[3][4].
Currently, the Galerie Morgenland is active with various projects and events. For example, a book about the resistance of the staff of Pohl & Jozwiak has been nominated for the HamburgLesen Book Prize 2024. Additionally, group exhibitions, workshop discussions, and historical tours are regularly held, highlighting the diversity and depth of the institution's cultural and historical work[5].
