The exhibition presents the lives and activities of selected personalities from the Czech and Moravian nobility after the Second World War.

Using the examples of Richard Belcredi, Johanna von Herzogenberg, Ferdinand Kinský, Nikolaus Lobkowicz, Franz Schwarzenberg, Karl Schwarzenberg, Father Angelus Waldstein-Wartenberg OSB, Daisy Waldstein-Wartenberg and the Thun family, the exhibition depicts the historical circumstances of their activities to maintain awareness of their common cultural roots and support compatriots on both sides of the border. It emphasizes their character, their special ability to face circumstances, and how their Christian faith, transnational family and political ties, and inherited sense of responsibility, among other things, shaped them. Aware of their common cultural roots in Central Europe, they built bridges across political, national and social divides and ultimately contributed to the political turnaround in 1989.
