- Abstract
The book "In Order: The Showcase Depot of the Ruhr Museum in Essen" by Alicia Jablonski and Jan C. Watzlawik describes the showcase depot of the Ruhr Museum in Essen, which opened in 2022. The showcase depot is located in the former salt factory of the Zollverein coking plant and serves as a comprehensive storage facility for future exhibition projects on the history of the region. It offers both self-guided group visits and public guided tours and is divided into various departments, which are thematically organized according to nature, culture, and history. The book emphasizes that the showcase depot is primarily a storage place, while the permanent exhibition is a presentation place. It also highlights the importance of climate in museums and society.
