Blog

In our blog, we provide insights into the projects we support, present important new publications and exhibitions on the subject of provenance research, report on conferences and talk about how previously looted cultural properties have found their way back to their rightful owners. Researchers and other interested parties are invited to contact the press office with ideas and suggestions for contributions: presse@kulturgutverluste.de

The Help Desk offers advice and assistance to victims of the Nazi regime and their descendants on questions relating to Nazi theft of cultural property. Serving as a central and initial low-threshold point of contact in Germany, it is aimed in particular at people whose place of residence is outside Germany and who are unfamiliar with German procedures, especially in connection with cultural federalism. The Help Desk seeks to provide support in taking initial steps as well as providing further contacts and information. We will also be happy to help initiate discussions with museums and other institutions.
