How can memories of the past be preserved for the future? In the master’s degree program on Public History, organized in cooperation between Freie Universität Berlin and the Leibniz Centre for Contemporary History in Potsdam, students learn about the culture of remembrance and gain the education they need for potential future work with memorial sites, museums, and exhibitions. In 2024, for example, they published a newspaper for an exhibition (in German) about the uprising in the Warsaw ghetto in 1944 (“Auf beiden Seiten der Barrikade. Fotografie und Kriegsberichterstattung im Warschauer Aufstand 1944”). They also created an audioguide (in German) for a cemetery in the Berlin district of Friedrichshain devoted to casualties of the attempted German revolution in March 1848 (Friedhof der Märzgefallenen), and curated an exhibit based on a substantial collection of historical postcards collected by Peter Plewka: “Aus der Zeit – Eine Kreuzberger Postkartensammlung 1890 – 1945” (in German).
