Transfer historical documents from the museum archives into today's writing and be part of our digitization process. In the transcription workshop of the Historical Division, a small committed group transcribes historical documents from the museum's collection once a week.
Normally the workshop takes place in the rooms of the Experimental Field. But we don't want to be kept from our work and have decided to create a digital transcription room. The texts in Sütterlin and Kurrent will be made available as digital copies. After a first introduction you will be able to access the documents and translate them independently. Once a week there is the opportunity to ask questions, collect suggestions and exchange ideas during a consultation hour.
The workshop will be in German.
