In the third room, the resistance activist Adam von Trott is portrayed. What did his work actually look like? Who were his friends, how was it possible for him to establish a resilient network of like-minded people? What concepts for a Germany and Europe after National Socialism did he and his fellow campaigners discuss? What happened on July 20, 1944 and afterwards? Visitors to the exhibition can find out all this - and much more - for themselves at various stations.

One aim of the exhibition is to stimulate questions in visitors about the fate and thoughts of Adam von Trott. How do I see the world and democracy in Germany today? How can I behave and what responsibility can I take?

"The exhibition organizers have managed to turn the seemingly difficult spatial situation in the Imshäuser Herrenhaus, Adam von Trott's parents' house, into an advantage." D. Frauke Geyken

The exhibition can be visited byappointment from Monday to Friday between 09:00 - 16:00 on your own or in small groups. Admission is free, donations are requested.
