History meets Virtual Reality

The traveling exhibition from the Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen is dedicated to a fascinating historical and theological topic: the Apostle Paul’s relationship with finances and property. The unique feature of this presentation is the use of modern virtual reality (VR) technology, which allows visitors to immerse themselves more deeply in the ancient world and experience historical contexts interactively.

Opening Event Schedule

Interested citizens and university members are cordially invited to attend the ceremonial opening. The program is divided into two parts:

  • Ceremony: Starts at 6:15 PM in the Großer Sitzungssaal of the Rosensäle.
  • Exhibition Opening: Immediately following, the Antikensammlungen in the neighboring building at Fürstengraben 25 will be opened to present the VR exhibition for the first time.

With this innovative format, the university continues its rich tradition of knowledge transfer, which is also reflected in milestones such as the anniversary 180 Years of the Archaeological Museum in Jena.
