Tasks

In the classical sense, a museum has five core tasks.

First: COLLECTING.

The museum collects cultural artefacts for posterity.

Second: PRESERVE.

The museum protects its objects from change and decay.

Third: RESEARCH.

All objects are scientifically analysed and placed in a historical or contextual context.

Fourth: EXHIBIT.

Exhibiting makes selected parts of the collection visible to the public. And they can be viewed from a variety of perspectives.

Fifth: Education

Education takes place in all conceivable forms and should reach as many age and target groups as possible.
