A collection in motion <\/strong><\/h2>\n

A museum collection is never static and is constantly changing as new objects are added or have to be given away.<\/strong> But what happens to objects that no longer represent any added value for the museum?
\nSooner or later, certain objects will be removed from a museum collection.
\nThis act is a delicate undertaking, as it involves objects that have been entrusted to the museum. <\/p>\n

Uncollection of museum objects<\/h3>\n

At the Ch\u00fcechlihus Regional Museum, we have been working intensively on this topic of de-collection for a long time: some of the objects in the museum are in multiple locations, some of them without documentation or are not (or no longer) suitable for museum work for other reasons.
\nWith the planned move of our collection to a new depot in 2022, we therefore decided to release selected objects for de-collection, i.e. to give them away from the museum.
\nWe then launched the #AltSuchtNeu project.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Emmental cultural heritage in dialog<\/h3>\n

As a museum, we ensured that the project was implemented in an unusual way: we enabled Emmental residents and local residents to influence the course and outcome of the project<\/strong>. They were able to cast their vote and thus have a say in which objects should leave the museum.
\nWe also set up a committee to oversee our disposal project throughout its implementation from April to fall 2022: the Object Council #AltSuchtNeu.
\nWe believe that our valuable, historical cultural heritage in Langnau does not belong to the museum alone. <\/p>\n

The actual owners of the objects in our collection are the Emmental people.<\/strong> For this reason, it was important to us to give the public a say in the purification of the museum collection.<\/p>\n<\/div>

April 2022<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The reason why the removal of objects is so relevant is that this is the only way to create a coherent, representative museum collection.<\/strong> At the Ch\u00fcechlihus Regional Museum, this is a collection that tells a balanced story about the Oberemmental cultural heritage.
\nWe don’t want to decide exactly what this means and is within our own four walls. <\/p>\n

We want there to be a dialog about this and a public debate about our history.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to bring the disposal project closer to the population and invite them to participate in #AltSuchtNeu, we went on a tour of Langnau i.E. with our posters before our big opening event.<\/p>\n<\/div>

See and visit objects<\/h3>\n

In April 2022, we made the objects in the depot of the Ch\u00fcechlihus regional museum visible to the public for the first time.
\nThe launch of the exhibition and the first online vote on the objects took place on April 4 at the Jugendhaus in Langnau i.E.. The event invited people to find out more about the project and offered a cultural program with Enrico Lenzin and culinary delights.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>
