Violent dispute about the future of the Steinhalle – SWR2

For five years, the Rhineland-Palatinate state parliament was a guest in the stone hall of the State Museum in Mainz. Now his actual seat, the historic Deutschhaus, has been completely renovated and the parliamentarians can move. But state parliament president Hendrik Hering does not want to give the stone hall back to the museum: Instead, he is planning a political meeting place there, a “place of democracy”. Historians and archaeologists are protesting against this – they are against the planned circumcision of the museum.
