Exhibition Opening
The Last Europeans.
Jewish Perspectives on the Crises of an Idea
The Brunner Family. An Estate


The European imperative “Never Again!” is being challenged by many, also here in Austria. At the same time, Europe’s nationalists are discovering their own fantasy of the “Christian-Jewish Occident”—as a battle cry against immigration and integration. The values of the Enlightenment, which constituted the foundation of European rapprochement in the wake of the catastrophes of the 20th century, are reversed into their opposite and turned into means of isolation and exclusion. Against this background, the Jewish Museum Hohenems looks at Jewish individuals who, in the face of the destruction of Europe and the attempted extermination of European Jews in the 20th century, crossed national and cultural borders and once again vehemently demanded the universal validity of human rights. Based on their commitment to a united and peaceful Europe, this exhibition explores at the same time the threats that it is facing anew.

The Brunner Family. An Estate
An extensive donation to the Jewish Museum Hohenems enables a comparative view of a European century on the basis of individual and family history. Starting point for the exhibition “The Last Europeans” is the estate of Carlo Alberto Brunner, consisting of letters and documents, memorabilia and everyday objects from the Brunner family who left Hohenems for Trieste in the first half of the 19th century to contribute to the rapid development of the Habsburg Mediterranean metropolis. The family’s steep social and cultural ascent ended with Europe’s evolution into a continent of mutual hatred and in the devastation of two world wars, which scattered parts of the family throughout the world.
