Couldn't load pickup availability
Whilst Germany's past is too often seen through the prism of the two World Wars, this series investigates a wider six hundred-year-old history of the nation through its objects. It examines the key moments that have defined Germany's past—its great, world-changing achievements and its devastating tragedies—and explores the profound influence that Germany's history, culture, and inventiveness have had across Europe.
The objects featured in the radio series range from large sculptures to small individual artifacts and items that are prosaic, iconic, and symbolic. Each has a story to tell and a memory to invoke.
