Overview

Intro

Historian Patrik Süess offers insights into his research on Wagner’s anti-Semitism and Lucerne’s approach to his legacy. The findings will be on display in a special exhibition starting in April 2027.

Did the people of Lucerne notice Wagner’s anti-Semitism during his time in Tribschen? How did the city of Lucerne deal with this when it opened the Richard Wagner Museum in 1933? And why, when the Lucerne Festival was founded in 1938, were Wagner’s works—of all things—performed on the square in front of the villa in Tribschen?

Historian Patrik Süess addressed these and other questions in a research project. The findings will be presented in a new special exhibition starting in April 2027. On the open house day, Patrik Süess will offer insights into his research and will be available for questions and discussions.
