The Lübeck Divan invites you to discover cultural exchange and travel along the historic Silk Road at the St. Annen Museum Quarter. The exhibition is part of the 2026 program of the Lübeck Museums and connects the history of a far-reaching network of routes with the idea of travel, encounter, and knowledge transfer.
The Silk Road represents much more than a single trade route. Over centuries, its routes connected different regions and cultures. Goods, stories, ideas, and artistic influences moved among people. The Lübeck Divan embraces this thought and focuses on the connections between cultural exchange and travel.
Insights into Travel and Cultural Connections
The exhibition looks at the historical significance of mobility and encounter. Visitors can engage with the question of how travel enables exchange between cultures and how new perspectives arise from it. The title “Lübeck Divan” refers to an approach that brings different cultural experiences into dialogue.
As part of the 2026 museum program, the exhibition complements Lübeck's diverse cultural offerings. The St. Annen Museum Quarter provides the perfect setting for this: Here, engagement with art, history, and cultural contexts is at the forefront. The visit is suitable for anyone interested in the Silk Road, historical travel routes, and international cultural contacts.
