Special Exhibition 2023: Images from the Stone Age
The Stone Age hunter-gatherer civilisations did not know how to write.
Instead, they have left us cave paintings and figurines of animals and humans from 36,000 to 12,000 years before present.
These testimonies of their world view - expressive images and complex symbols - show a world full of mysteries, but also their deep rootedness in nature.
The world of ancestors, birth and death, creatively connected with the beauty of animal beings were made visible forever on the walls of dark caves.
The exhibition with copies of selected cave paintings and replicas of more than 80 (!) sculptures of women and animals provides an insight into the world of fantasy and art created by Stone Age people throughout Europe.
