Friends and Patrons of »Keramik-Museum Bürgel and Dornburger Keramik-Werkstatt e.V.«

The »Förderkreis Keramikmuseum Bürgel e.V.« (Association of Friends and Patrons) was founded in 1994 with the goal of supporting the preservation of the Ceramics Museum Bürgel. Since 1999, our main concern was to find a new location for the museum. This goal was achieved in 2003 with the opening of the Ceramics Museum in the former schoolhouse of the town of Bürgel. Since 2011 the association has been called »Förderkreis Keramik-Museum Bürgel und Dornburger Keramik-Werkstatt e.V.«.

The establishment of the Bauhaus Workshop Museum in Dornburg as an additional museum location was our focus in the years that followed and was successfully completed in 2019.

The purpose of our association is to advance art and culture, education and science by supporting and promoting the Ceramics Museum Bürgel and the Bauhaus Workshop Museum in Dornburg.

You can find the association’s bylaws here.
