Lindenau Museum inspires with Digamus Award for digital user experience!

On September 24, 2025, the Digamus Award was awarded as part of a hybrid event, one of the highest awards for digital projects in German -speaking countries. The online presence Bellissimo.digital of the Lindenau Museum Altenburg was able to prevail in the "User Experience" category and was thus awarded for its innovative approach. This digital offer, which started in 2024, offers a modern, vivid preparation of the collection of early Italian painting.

The platform enables users to discover the motifs of classic painting through exciting pop cultural comparisons. The interactive functions that enable a deeper immersion in the works of art are particularly noteworthy. The project is the result of a successful cooperation between different areas of the Altenburg museums, including science, digitization department, restoration as well as art and cultural mediation.

Cooperation and funding

External partners such as the companies Untalt and Content & Code from Leipzig also supported the project. The funding is carried out by the Lindenau21plus program, which is financed by the Federal Government for Culture and Media. The aim is to build a digitization workshop and a studio digital for the art school in Altenburg. The Bellissimo.digital project was also initiated by a cooperation exhibition with the municipal museums Freiburg, which took place from 2023 to 2024.

Dr. Roland Krischke, director of the Lindenau Museum, is pleased with the award and emphasizes the future-oriented vision of the LindenaCampusdigital as a new digital educational format. This is in line with the master plan "Prince in the Sleeping Beauty Castle", which highlights the importance of digital formats in the museum.
