Romantekerhaus Jena

The Romantekerhaus Jena is a literary museum in Jena dedicated to early German Romanticism. It is a unique museum of its kind. It is housed in a 17th century building, as well as the former home of the German philosopher Fichte. The museum celebrates the intense intellectual climate and the significant contribution made to the city by thinkers such as Schiller, Fichte, the brothers Schlegel, Schelling and Novalis. The spiritual and cultural charisma of Jena has in fact embodied an essential creative prerequisite for the first romanticism: in the museum it wants to show in particular the cultural and historical-intellectual background for the departure of a young generation of poets, literary critics, philosophers and natural scientists.

Depending on the floors of the house, the visitor goes through three levels, which also differ in color. The staircase as a connecting element shows the intensification of yellow tones to gold in the third level as a sign of the arrival in the “golden age”. While the first floor of the exhibition illustrates Jena's spiritual and cultural charisma, the second floor deals with early romanticism. The content lines of the first and second level are finally connected to the upper level. A part of the third exhibition level is also reserved for temporary exhibitions dealing with special themes of the romantic era.
