We explore the experience

of crossing borders


Today crossing borders has become a part of our daily routine. We travel for our studying and work, meeting with friends and our family. It is pretty easy and fast today to buy tickets or book accommodation for any trip. However, how much is it easy - to cross borders? What difficulties do people experience when they are going through border control? How do they feel, and which problems should be solved? We are exploring personal experiences from different corners of the world and invite you to join this exciting adventure.



Borders’ experience across

historical space and time


In a unique historical place that combines the cultural heritage of the Past and the technology of the present, we invite you to experience an unforgettable emotional experience and touch the inspiring history of Thurnau Castle.



We organize workshops and conferences dedicated to cross-border problems and opportunities


For many years now, we have been deeply studying the experience of cross-border intersections, intercultural conflicts, relationships and connections. We analyze migration data and work with statistics, and also regularly conduct seminars and conferences. More details about the topics and studies can be found here.



See you there


We look forward to welcoming you to our exhibitions and research events!
