“Borussia and the Brits” – Limited-time exhibition at the FohlenWelt opening 8th May

On 8th May 2024, a new exhibition entitled “Borussia and the Brits” will open in Borussia Mönchengladbach’s interactive club museum, the FohlenWelt.

The 110m2 exhibition, which will be the museum’s sixth so far, was designed and produced by the club and will be centred around the long and storied relationship between Gladbach and British football, starting with the club’s first ever matches against English teams in 1912 and 1914. Borussia also has a relationship with the British Army of the Rhine stationed in Mönchengladbach, as well as with Premier League giants Liverpool FC. The exhibition concludes with a look at the current Gladbach squad and their label of “A German Team”, as well as the lifelong fans from Great Britain who regularly made the trip to BORUSSIA-PARK .

In the year that Germany hosts the European Championship, Borussia consciously chose an international theme for the special exhibition. At the same time, though, the theme is strongly anchored locally, due to the close connections between the city, Borussia and the former British military presence in the area. “We hope not only to inspire football fans in the region to visit the FohlenWelt, but also to offer something interesting for international fans, especially Brits, at BORUSSIA-PARK this summer,” said Gladbach CEO Markus Aretz.

The organisers have devised a special setting for the exhibition. “The room that houses this temporary exhibition has been transformed to look like a classic football pub. A lot of attention has gone into the details and it’s been fully furnished,” explained Matthias Rech, the director of the FohlenWelt. “There’s a lot to discover and experience in this pub.” Visitors will be able to hear the story of the Foals’s first trip to Scotland at the bar from a player who was there in 1960. While playing table football, they can watch replays of the 1977 European Cup final against Liverpool or learn about how British fans fell in love with Gladbach. The FohlenWelt team has used a variety of different mediums to tell the big and small stories that connect Borussia with the birthplace of football. These tales about “Borussia and the Brits” have also been gathered in a magazine of the same name, which will be available from the FohlenShop when the exhibition is opened.
