Curator's café - Coral stories: 898 out of 165,000 objects
Aperçu
Introduction
The coral collection from the Winterthur Nature Museum and its hidden stories.
The Weber coral collection brings together fossil and recent corals. It documents the diversity, the wealth of forms and the development of corals over geological periods up to the present day. Carl Weber (1845-1915), an industrialist from Winterthur, collected the corals - or was it his wife? A surprising historical photo!
In the cozy setting of the "Boost Bar", the curators explain how they track down the stories behind the objects and keep coming across new mysteries. You will learn exciting facts about the time and life of the collectors and have the opportunity to talk directly to those responsible: Ask questions, find out the background and gain new perspectives.
A lively insight into the hidden stories of a large collection - direct, personal and open to your curiosity. The next Curators' Café will take place in 2026 on:
- Sunday, November 29, 2026, Egg Stories: x from 165,000 objects
With Sabrina Schnurrenberger, Curator Biology and Sandra Scherrer, Curator Earth Sciences
