TBIH2024 IMAGINES | Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History: Minett Stories

Assistant Professor for Contemporary History at the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH) Stefan Krebs talks to TBIH's Katey Goodwin about the Minett Stories: Remixing Industrial Pasts in the Digital Age project. It won the Society for the History of Technology's Dibner Award in 2023.

Minett Stories is an online exhibit (https://minett-stories.lu) focused on the history and identity of the industrial southern region of Luxembourg known as the Minett. The exhibit features twenty-one interrelated vignettes revealing diverse facets of the region’s history, which has been heavily influenced by iron and steel production and the mining of “minette” iron ore, which lends the region its name. The Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History launched the exhibit in 2022 as part of the larger “Remixing Industrial Pasts in the Digital Age” project funded by the non-profit European Capital of Culture Esch2022
