Roman Taste History to Touch at SchichtWerk
On International Museum Day, the Museum SchichtWerk in Gilching opens its doors for a special art experience between archaeology, cultural history, and culinary discovery. The focus is on the interactive station Moretum: Visitors mix herbs for a Roman cheese spread and experience history not just as an illustration, but as an aesthetic experience with scent, material, and hand movement.
History Becomes Sensory Here
The SchichtWerk sees itself as a place of time travel. The permanent exhibitions on Romans and Bavarians show the transition from late Roman to Bavarian settlement and emphasize the exploration of work, participation, and immediate communication. This museum concept makes the visit so lively: Drawers, media, and interactive stations provide access that does not present archaeological finds distantly but makes them experienceable as a living narrative.
Moretum: Roman Cuisine, Today's Curiosity
The herb station connects to the special exhibition Dining with the Romans. Moretum, the Roman cheese paste, exemplifies ancient everyday culture, taste traditions, and the interplay of nutrition and social life. Who works here with mortar, herbs, and sheep cheese gains direct insight into Roman eating culture and museum education. The result is not just a small culinary experiment but a vivid access to an entire epoch.
A Museum with Profile and Awards
SchichtWerk - Time Travels in the Werson House is located in the historical villa of the artist Jules Werson and has already been awarded for its mediation concept. The exhibition atmosphere combines regional history, voluntary commitment, and scientifically-grounded presentation. This results in a credible cultural place that appeals to both families and art- and history-interested guests.
Visit, Guided Tour, and Atmosphere
International Museum Day offers the right opportunity to experience the museum in a calm, focused environment. Admission is free, and the exhibition thrives on the combination of collection, mediation, and practical experience. Those interested in archaeology, everyday history, and cultural education will find here a compact, stimulating museum visit with a lasting impression.
Conclusion: The SchichtWerk connects Roman history, participatory culture, and museum pedagogical quality into a convincing excursion tip. The herb station Moretum makes International Museum Day particularly vivid and invites to visit the museum live and discover history with all senses.
