The german question

To mark the upcoming Day of German Unity, we are organising short guided tours of three turning points in the exhibition "Roads not Taken. Or: It could have turned out differently", at which the German question arose.
"Where is the German fatherland?"
While today we believe we know reliably where Germany can be found on political maps, the question posed by the writer Ernst Moritz Arndt preoccupied entire generations: In divided post-war Germany, one state denied the other its right to exist. In the German War of 1866, Prussia and Austria struggled for leadership. The first national parliament met in Frankfurt's Paulskirche in 1848 and spent 12 months searching for an answer.
