Historical places – such as the little house outside the city's walls bought by Friedrich Schiller in 1797 and the Goethe-Laboratorium in the inspector's house of the Botanical Garden – and their unique material belongings enable experiences that appeal to all senses and thus make historical and scientific contexts aesthetically comprehensible.
