Summary
A museum exhibition within the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Speicherstadt and Kontorhaus District in Hamburg serves as a case study for examining how spices are culturally represented as commodities across historical time. The analysis reveals that the Spicy’s Gewürzmuseum, housed in a repurposed industrial complex, uses gastronomic content tied to specific nations to explore ethno-identification while emphasizing cultural exchange. By mapping the museum's presentation of spices and related objects, this study provides insight into the socialization and institutionalization of culinary heritage. The research bridges historical interpretation with contemporary discourse on cultural heritage, offering a nuanced understanding of how gastronomic goods are framed in museum contexts.
