Her Side Of The War

The Great War was not an exclusively male affair. Women too played their part, although not on the battlefield.

Their work was focused on local communities and family life. These women handled childcare and business matters, took initiatives in order to maintain healthcare and education and established a network of solidarity across ethnic and cultural boundaries.

In a series of exhibitions we honour several iconic women:

• Marie Curie
• Madame Tack & Mietje Boeuf
• Elsie Knocker & Mairi Chisholm
• Queen Elisabeth
• Käthe Kollwitz
