Ansbach (dpa / lby) - According to the organizers, this year's Bavarian state exhibition is well received by visitors. More than 45,000 people saw the show "Typically Franconian?" already seen in Ansbach. "In view of the still noticeable effects of the Corona crisis, these are pleasing numbers," says the House of Bavarian History, which organizes the state exhibition every year. Mostly families or single guests came. There is still reluctance among groups and school classes.
According to the exhibition team, the result of the visitor survey, in which around 13,000 people have taken part so far, is also pleasing. Accordingly, 82 percent of those surveyed liked the exhibition well or very well. The proportion of those who came to Ansbach in Central Franconia especially for the state exhibition was just as large. The exhibition lasts until November 6th.
On around 1000 square meters in the orangery and the town church of St. Gumbertus, this explores the question of what makes the region in northern Bavaria so special. With 150 exhibits, it primarily shows the diversity of Franconia, but also plays with clichés and prejudices. Nine Franconian regions between the Middle Ages and 1800 are illuminated. However, there are also references to the present.
