November marks the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War. ICOM 
EUROPE, together with ICOM Germany, takes this important event as an 
opportunity to reflect anew on the extent to which this historical dimension 
had consequences for the museum landscape and to what extent the united Europe 
of today itself is in demand to actively position itself. Social responsibility 
and awareness of democracy are essential factors that promote free sciences and 
art, but at the same time also allow scope for the establishment of museums and 
their contexts. The developments within the museum as an institution have 
undergone enormous processes of change, especially in the last decades, in 
which not least the questions about the contents, the history of the collection 
and the currently held debates have been and will be challenged. In the context 
of progressive digitization, once again huge transformations are coming to the 
institution. This is why during this conference we want to reflect to what 
extent museums, borders (former as well as new) and European responsibility 
could be key concepts, questioning, exploring and transposing this historical 
dimension from the end of the First World War to current processes and issues.
