Postscript
If you would like to hear more life stories of people in Austria today, you can get your fill here. If you look towards the window, opposite the wall with the colourful pieces of paper, you will find a long screen with a bench and headphones. There are several interviews to choose from.
The wall with the many coloured pieces of paper invites the museum visitors to write down and leave their response to the question “What is worth fighting for?” The answers are as diverse as the people who come to the museum.
The sheer number and the broad range of responses give a sense of the diversity of a society that consists of a great number of individuals—each with entirely different desires, ideas, aims and circumstances.
Individual acts and collective efforts have an impact on the development of society. You can also leave your thoughts on the question: What is important to you? What do you stand up for? How do you make history?
