The concept of celebration seems as old as humanity itself. People in ancient times, much like us today, enjoyed gathering to have a good time and share food and drink. What were the occasions for celebration in the past? Which customs have endured to this day? And when did guests include not only the living? The exhibition at the Archaeological Museum aims to answer some of these questions about the old festivities. Accompanying the archaeological artefacts related to these old customs are vibrant posters depicting various celebratory events. The exhibition will be open from mid-September until the end of November 2024.

The exhibition from the series "Close encounters with..." explores the theme of legendary creatures and their depictions on archaeological monuments. It tells the story of mythical creatures that have been present in legends and bestiaries since ancient times. They are encountered among the decorative motifs of buildings, interiors and everyday objects.
The visitors to the exhibition are invited to take a closer look at archaeological artefacts featuring fantastic creatures. Accompanying posters provide in-depth information on these beings and shed light on their symbolic meaning.
