Our history. Memory of the Nation e.V.

Purpose of the association

History lives on through stories. Through personal experiences and encounters. Capturing these in interviews and preserving them for future generations is the goal of the association "Our History. The Memory of the Nation."

This project, which is unique in Germany, collects stories from contemporary witnesses about everyday experiences and key moments in German history. Young and old alike talk in front of the camera about their very individual memories of historical events and developments. They form the mosaic stones in the historical image of a nation and shape the self-image of a society.

Tell us your story and become part of a multifaceted archive of memories!
