What do we know about the Celts on the Dürrnberg and how do we know it? The exhibition takes a look behind the scenes of archaeology and focuses on the people who have shaped research on the Dürrnberg for almost 200 years. It shows how archaeological methods and our understanding of the Celts have changed over generations. Hands-on stations invite visitors of all ages to become researchers themselves: identifying finds, measuring, drawing and documenting and working just like archaeologists. After all, research means looking closely, asking questions and discovering something new every time.

The cool hands-on stations invite visitors to take a closer look at things. Visitors of all ages can sort and identify finds, take measurements, draw, and try their hand at archaeological research. The exhibition not only shows what we know about the Celts, but above all asks how this knowledge comes about.

Perhaps this is the exhibition’s key message: research is never finished. Each generation asks new questions, develops new methods, and looks at what is already known from a different perspective. Cool Celts? Absolutely! But the research that brings their story to life is just as cool.
