About us
Deutsches Hygiene-Museum (DHMD) is an open forum for discussion, open to everyone who is interested in the cultural, social and scientific revolutions taking place in our society at the beginning of the 21st century.
The Project
Opening Time: The DHMD in Transformation
Faced with social polarization and financial uncertainty, the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum Dresden is using the challenges of our time as a stimulus for profound change. With a long-term strategy, the museum aims to evolve from a purely curatorially-focused institution into a space that increasingly prioritises participation and diversity. To achieve this, opening processes will be structurally embedded, and sustainable alliances with the city’s community and national partners will be built. In this way, the museum is transforming into a multi-voiced forum for social dialogue – open, accessible, and future-oriented.
