Very British: Hanover Open-Air Gallery

Under the theme “12 Locations, 12 Themes, 30 Days,” downtown Hanover will be transformed into an attractive “Very British” open-air gallery through June 27.

Under the motto “12 Locations, 12 Themes, 30 Days,” the “Very British” open-air gallery took visitors on a month-long tour of downtown Hanover with large-scale advertising columns.

In 1714, with Elector George Louis—who ascended the British throne as George I—the era of the personal union began, during which the rulers of Hanover also reigned over England. Although the two countries continued to exist separately, there was still an exchange of ideas in science, agriculture, and the arts. Since the last king of the personal union, William IV, had no male heirs and the Guelph succession laws excluded female succession to the throne, the era of the personal union came to an end in 1837. Learn more about this fascinating period!

The "Very British" open-air gallery provided an overview of the eventful era of the personal union at twelve locations.
