September 20, 2019 – May 10, 2020 Special exhibition in the Friedrich Ebert Memorial “Demokratie als Lebensform. Eine Wanderausstellung zu Theodor Heuss und Elly Heuss-Knapp”.

The special exhibition “Democracy as a way of life. A traveling exhibition on Theodor Heuss and Elly Heuss-Knapp” in the Friedrich Ebert Memorial follows the first German Federal President and his wife through five epochs of German history. Numerous objects and playful elements help discover two people who were guided by the de­ mocratic and liberal ideas of their time and who, in accordance with these ideas, actively contributed to the shaping of Germany. Admission is free.

The festival center, an orangery building on the centrally located University Square, will take center stage. As manager of the chamber music academy, Pianist Igor Levit can be met at the chamber music festival “Standpunkte” (standpoints). In addition to Thomas Hampson’s Lied Akademie (Song Academy), there will be a four-day song festival called “Neuland.Lied” (New Territory Song).

March 25 – July 12, 2020 Hercules – Immortal Hero Hercules, son of Zeus and the mortal Alkmene, remains an ambivalent hero to this day. His power is as proverbial as his lack of self-control. An object of religious veneration in ancient times, he was considered a powerful champion of good in the Middle Ages and early Modern Era. In Heidelberg he stands as a symbol for the Prince Elector. The Kur­ pfälzisches Museum (Palatinate Museum) Heidelberg is now dedicating a large special exhibition to him in 2020 with spectacular loans from Basel, Rome, Naples and Turin.

March 25 – August 16, 2020 Fragile Treasures of the Prinzhorn Collection In addition to the museum's newly established permanent exhibition, several drawings, oil paintings, books, textiles and collages from the unique holdings of the Prinzhorn Collection will be on display. These extraordinary works established the collection's worldwide fame. Their increasingly fragile condition prohibits the permanent presentation and loan to other museums. Now, these fragile treasures are united on this one-time exhibition.

Please note: The Prinzhorn Collection is closed until mid-March 2020 due to reconstruction measures. https://prinzhorn.ukl-hd.de

May 19 – September 14, 2020 “Europa, der Krieg und ich – 100 Jahre Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge e. V.” The special exhibition “Europa, der Krieg und ich – 100 Jahre Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge e. V.” (Europa, the war and I – 100 years of Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge e. V.) in the Friedrich Ebert Memorial shows the development of the Kriegsgräberfürsorge (German War Graves Commission) and the importance of commemorative culture. The exhibition covers a far range of time, from the beginning of the Kriegsgräberfürsoge in Europe’s late 19th century, through the concrete tasks that arose from the carnage of the two world wars, to the “reconciliation above graves” and today's first approaches to European co-remembrance. Admission is free.

October 18, 2020 – February 7, 2021 Friedrich Dürrenmatt – Caricatures Dürrenmatt's humor runs like a red thread through his written and pictorial work. Outside his legendary literary work, Dürrenmatt was an enthusiastic graphic artist and painter throughout his whole life.

Among his graphic work, caricatures form the largest thematic group. Not only did he prefer this genre; he especially enjoyed the speed and spontaneity that this art type allowed him. The KMH will showcase 100 exhibits from the Centre Dürrenmatt Neuchâtel and from private collections, which present this unknown side of the great writer. www.museum.heidelberg.de

Dürrenmatt's caricatures are drawn aphorisms.

November 6 – December 12, 2020 denke.schön – the Cabaret Autumn 2020 Political cabaret is alive! And this is proven year after year by the Kulturfenster as the organizer of the festival. It is precisely at this time that we need new angles and points of view that help us to better recognize and understand what is happening, and what we can make fun of or what we should take a closer look at. Profoundness and humor. That's what cabaret is standing for. All in all, the festival presents about a dozen different programs on the intimate stage in the backyard theater of the Kulturfenster in Bergheim.

Many prize winners of the German cabaret scene as well as several great and impressive new discoveries will be present: Till Reiners, Dagmar Schönleber, Nektarios Vlachopoulos, Lisa Christ, Christine Prayon, Fatih Çevikkollu, Jens Neutag and many others.
