Programme focus

In 2025, the Universal Joanneum will be presenting a highly varied programme with some 20 exhibitions and projects that examine art, culture, history, nature and science in a fascinating way.

The focal points are on financial education and democratic values, as well as how we live together as a society. Alongside SHOWING STYRIA 2025, which will take place in Schloss Eggenberg to mark the 400-year anniversary of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the 2025 EXPO in Osaka, where Schloss Eggenberg will also play a role, also represents a special highlight.
