Share your story with us in any possible way, whether by e-mail, by letter, by phone, at the museum desk, on Facebook, in our visitor’s log, on our website or in a personal interview.
Any accompanying photos and documents are digitally stored and contribute to bringing a story to life. Every story, long or short, major or minor, gets a place in the museum’s 'Warehouse'.
Lose yourself in our rich collection. Some of these stories may be used later on in the museum’s permanent collection or for temporary exhibitions.
