Senior Citizens in Erlangen: Together Experiencing Life Stories

Excellence in Old Age: An exhibition about strong life paths in Erlangen

At the community center ISAR 12, visitors encounter an exhibition that dignifies and makes the focus on old age approachable. The spotlight is on people from Erlangen who are 90 years and older and, through their life stories, show how much experience, attitude, and community life can be found in a long life. The occasion is the 50th anniversary of the Senior Advisory Board of the City of Erlangen. The event is designed as a free, senior-friendly place for encounters and takes place on the 1st floor of the building.

Life stories that move

Such formats promote the feeling of being seen and provide a dignified space for the experiences of advanced age.
