Dementia Course in Jena: An Impressive Look into Everyday Life with Dementia

The Dementia Course at the Ernst-Abbe-Library Jena makes the topic of dementia immediately tangible. On September 23, 2026, at 3:00 PM, the interactive course invites participants to experience typical everyday situations from the perspective of people with dementia, thus developing more understanding, empathy, and sensitivity.

13 Stations that Leave an Impression

At 13 stations, participants experience how familiar actions suddenly become a challenge. Experimenting is expressly encouraged and leads participants into an event experience that does not teach but moves. It is precisely this intensive form of encounter that makes the Dementia Course a unique educational offering with genuine audience atmosphere and sustainable learning effects.

A Course that Makes Knowledge Tangible

The event combines expert knowledge with immediate experience. Those who go through the course discover how important patience, attention, and appreciative communication are when interacting with dementia. This creates an event experience that broadens perspectives and strengthens the target audience approach for relatives, caregivers, and interested parties alike.

Barrier-Free and in the Heart of the City

The Dementia Course takes place in the EAB Stadtmitte in the Helene-Petrenz Hall. The Ernst-Abbe-Library Jena is centrally located at Engelplatz and is barrier-free accessible. Additionally, the connection in the city center makes visiting easier. For parking, the general rule in Jena's city center is managed parking space, so early arrival is worthwhile.

Conclusion: A Visit that Creates Understanding

The Dementia Course is not a classic exhibition format but an impressive experience with real added value. Anyone wanting to understand more about life with dementia in Jena should not miss this date. On-site awaits a thoughtful, empathetic, and at the same time educational experience that lingers in the mind.
