Hansa Rostock inspires: jersey rarity and over 5,500 visitors in the Kunsthalle!

Rostock, Deutschland - A whole football life on 2000 square meters is presented in the Kunsthalle Rostock as part of the current exhibition "Round & angular - sometimes dirty". This impressive show was launched on the occasion of the 60th birthday of FC Hansa Rostock and has already attracted over 5,500 visitors. One of the spray fireworks in the exhibition is the rarity of a Pagelsdorf jersey that was once donated by Frank Pagelsdorf, the legendary coach of the 1990s. Today exactly two of these master jerseys still exist - the other is also in the Kunsthalle and attracts the eyes of the fans. Jens Strohschein, a Hansa fan from Schlagsdorf, is proud of this rare piece of football history, which was lucky with the D-Juniors of SG Schlagsdorf for a district championship victory.

But the exhibition goes far beyond jerseys and jerseys. In addition to around 300 exhibits that range from historical memories to the political and social issues of football, visitors can also dive into the world of installations, photos, videos and works of art. Luisa Loebbert von der Kunsthalle reports on the consistently positive reactions of the visitors-both of die-hard Hansa fans and those who immerse themselves in the matter. This diversity makes the show accessible and tangible, no matter how much prior knowledge it has.

A look behind the scenes

The concept of the exhibition, which in close cooperation with the F.C. Hansa Rostock has arisen, the eventful history of the club takes up. From the beginning in the post -war period, when football was still firmly anchored in the workers, to the challenges of modern professional football. The dark sides, such as the role of hooligans and the evolution of fan culture, are also discussed. While hooligans were the focus in the 1980s, since the 1990s there have been a relocation to the Ultras, which organize themselves more and to celebrate more emotional support for their team.

How crucial the fan culture is is particularly evident in a traditional club like Hansa Rostock. This exhibition not only gives fans a platform to express their passion, but also reflects how football is part of social identity in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. In addition to the sporting challenges, the political dimensions are also taken into account, which are important for many enlightened fans.

a nostalgic review and outlook

And what do fans think about the future? Jens Strohschein looks at the next season with optimism. "I am convinced that our trainer Daniel Brinkmann leads us to the 2nd Bundesliga," he says, referring to the continuous efforts of the association to develop new potential. Of course, it remains to be seen whether this succeeds - but with the support from the fan curve and such outstanding exhibitions as in the Kunsthalle Rostock, FC Hansa Rostock could go in the right direction.

Perhaps the significant position of the association in the region will also be strengthened thanks to these lively memories. A real crash factory for fans and friends of football who get their money's worth in Rostock.

The Kunsthalle Rostock is a place where history comes to life - and with every visitor the story of FC Hansa Rostock is continued. A place where you can experience not only the past, but also the present and future of football.
