At Cambridge History for Schools, kids who love teasing out ideas get to meet one another and go beyond the usual school curricula with volunteers from the Faculty of History.

Building identity: hands-on history workshop for ages 11-14

Sat 7 May 2016

Faculty of History, University of Cambridge

Building national identity in Germany today

Take a walk through present-day Germany as we encounter some of its newest buildings and public monuments.

What can they tell us about how Germany is wrestling with its 20th-century past?

This workshop sets out to prove that it is not just books on library shelves but the very stones under our feet that tell a story about how the past shapes our present!

Cambridge History for Schools is an exciting initiative from one of the world's leading History Faculties. Led by doctoral researchers and historians from the University of Cambridge, our workshops use fun, creative activities to inspire young people to try out ideas and ask new questions about the past. Come join us as we get hands-on with history at our next workshop!
