A completely new feeling for Krefeld in the modern Haus der Seidenkultur

“Sensational with three exclamation marks” is the opinion of a professor visiting the re-opened Haus der Seidenkultur following the refurbishment. “The top address for Silk Culture” and “New Start instead of Demise” were the headlines in the press. “Textile culture in Krefeld has come alive again” is how the WDR television described it in a report broadcast via the regional channels in Düsseldorf, Duisburg and in the Lower Rhine area

The culture editor of a Krefeld newspaper put it in a nutshell in his comments under the heading “A completely new feeling for Krefeld”:

“Haus der Seidenkultur, until recently an impressive, slightly fusty industrial monument with provincial charm has been re-opened as a modern museum. The concepts developed by the Association of Friends sound convincing. At best the museum will give both adults and children a completely new feeling for the history of the town.”
