These 360-degree pictures were recorded in pforzheim. The Museum Johannes Reuchlin invites you to discover a humanist of European importance and his fascinating life. Johannes Reuchlin (1455-1522) called for dialogue between Christians, Jews and Muslims. He laid the foundations for the translation into German and became the pioneer of the Enlightenment. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe called it a "miracle-sign". The exhibition
The Museum Johannes Reuchlin provides an insight into the language laboratory of the humanist and presents the media debate which led Reuchlin against the "dark men" on the threshold of modern times. Follow Reuchlin's moving life and "flip" you in his books and letters.
Place of European humanism
Reuchlin's valuable library was once preserved in a late-Gothic cultivation of the castle church, the Reuchlinkolleg. This place was already a sight in the 16th century. In 1922 the city set up a reuchlin museum. During the air attack on Pforzheim on February 23, 1945 Reuchlinkolleg and Reuchlinmuseum were totally destroyed. The new room
The "Reuchlinkolleg" at the castle church was built in the years 2006-2008 by the friends of the castle church, V. rebuilt for the museum Johannes Reuchlin. The designs were provided by the architect Prof. Bernhard Hirche.

The pencil
The museum also includes the "Stiftschor", which is spectacularly shaped by the tomb monuments of the Renaissance-era princely bathing house and a cycle of colored glass windows by Charles Crodel from the post-war period. The sound installation in the pinschor
Since March 2016, you have been listening to the sound installation "Genesis" in Reuchlin's Hebrew grammar from 1518. In the combination of Renaissance sounds with the traditional cantor singing in the synagogue, Catalina Vincens's work contributes a musical contribution to the dialogue of cultures and religions.
