The museum is appealing to the public for assistance in gathering materials for the exhibition. They are actively searching for former Mitropa employees who can share their experiences and memories. Additionally, the institution is seeking to collect historical exhibits, such as photographs, documents, menus, or any other items that can shed light on Mitropa's operations and cultural significance.

This initiative aims to preserve and present the history of Mitropa, a company that was an integral part of German travel and hospitality for decades. The exhibition will offer a glimpse into the era of long-distance train travel and the services that defined the Mitropa experience for its customers and employees.
