Alaaf! & Heil Hitler! Carnaval in crisis, oorlog en vrijheid
Until 11 August from 10:00 to 17:00
Exhibition
In de jaren 30 en 40 van de 20ste eeuw stond de Vastelaovend onder zware druk. Maar het feest der feesten ging door en vond in donkere tijden zelfs een nieuwe impuls. Beleef het in de tentoonstelling Alaaf! & Heil Hitler! Carnaval in crisis, oorlog en vrijheid.
Carnaval
De expositie brengt de geschiedenis van carnaval voor, tijdens en na de Tweede Wereldoorlog in groen-geel-rode kleuren in beeld. In Duitsland trachtten de nationaalsocialisten het volksfeest te gebruiken als propaganda, in Nederland wilde de geestelijkheid het carnaval uitbannen en in andere landen werd carnaval aangegrepen om de nazi's belachelijk te maken. Tijdens de bezetting mocht er nauwelijks openbaar gevierd worden en het verhaal gaat dat er helemaal geen carnaval zou zijn geweest tijdens de oorlogsjaren. Niets is minder waar, tonen de talloze foto’s en verhalen. Het feest ging door, achter gesloten deuren en soms zelfs op straat.
