Leipzig Panometer, Panoramic museum in Connewitz, Leipzig, Germany.
Description
The Leipzig Panometer occupies a cylindrical structure with a diameter of 57 meters, featuring 360-degree displays up to 30 meters high. Inside, a multi-story scaffold with platforms leads to different viewing levels, allowing visitors to observe the presentation from changing perspectives.
History
The building was constructed between 1909 and 1910 as a gas storage facility and remained in operation until 1977. After decades of vacancy, it was converted into an exhibition space in 2003, hosting rotating panoramas ever since.
Culture
Yadegar Asisi develops large-format circular images printed on fabric strips that wrap around the viewer. Walking through the installation, one experiences a combination of photography, drawing, and painting that forms a continuous visual world.
Practical
A visit typically lasts between 60 and 90 minutes, including time to view from different levels and absorb accompanying information. At the entrance areas, information panels and multimedia stations explain the theme on display.
