The namesake of the University of Oldenburg and Nobel Peace Prize winner Carl von Ossietzky has been interpreted and given meaning in many different ways over the years. Our exhibition explores the question of who the namesake actually was. The various "images" of and about Carl von Ossietzky are shown, which were ultimately responsible for the protracted naming dispute.

Following the tour, the Nobel Peace Prize will be presented.

This event takes place several times.
