A bang at the Tyrolean state museums! The contract with the managing director Peter Assmann will be terminated earlier than planned at the end of the year. “Consensually,” as emphasized.
As it became known on Tuesday evening, the state of Tyrol and the Tyrolean State Museum Ferdinandeum Association, as shareholders of the Tyrolean State Museums Operating Company, will terminate the contract with Managing Director Peter Assmann at the end of the year. Mutually and “at the personal request of the managing director”, emphasize Kultur-LR Beate Palfrader and Franz Pegger, chairman of the association. Peter Assmann’s tenure was shaped by the pandemic. He took over at a particularly difficult time marked by the pandemic. His position is being re-advertised. The interim management is taken over by Karl C. Berger, long-time director of the Tyrolean Folk Art Museum.
