Pottery and ceramics in Germany - inclusion in the national register of intangible cultural heritage.

We are delighted that pottery and ceramics in Germany have been included in the nationwide UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List as a traditional craft technique since 2025. The inclusion is a success for ceramists in all areas and highlights the importance of handmade pottery, the diverse techniques and the many regional characteristics. The Werkschule Oldenburg and the International Ceramics Days would like to make a contribution to the preservation and promotion of this great cultural technique with their course program and the Keramikmarkt . Thank you to all those who have made a strong contribution to this visible sign in our society.
