'Thuisreis' in Stedelijk Museum Breda

 The author of the war chronicle *Het bittere kruid* (1957) was born in Ginneken and grew up in a close-knit Jewish family where art and music were an integral part. In 1938, she began her writing career as a trainee journalist at the *Bredasche Courant*; not yet aware of how drastically the world would change in just a few years.

Photographs by Jan de Jong (1898 - 1971) allow you to see the Breda of around 1935 in the exhibition, the Breda of Marga Minco. Based on memories, such as those of Valkenberg, Mastbos, Grote Markt, and Kasteelplein, you see the city through her eyes.
