Julius Caesar

- Triumph and Death of a Roman Conqueror

Julius Caesar is one of the most influential and significant characters in the history of Rome, he was a cunning politician, a skilled orator, a ruthless leader. Under his leadership, the process of transforming Rome from a Republic into the greatest Empire of the ancient Western world began. His assassination completely changed the history of the Western world and, still today, keeps on sparking an enormous interest as one of history’s most famous and fascinating “thrillers”. The international touring exhibition draws a portrait of the great legend of Roman history - through outstanding original loans from Italian-, German- and Finnish Museums.
JULIUS CAESAR was developed in close collaboration between the Museum in Kuopio/Finland, the Museo Archeologico di Firenze/Italy, the Römisch-Germanisches Museum in Mainz and Contempotanea Progetti and Expona.
