Stones mural in Gartenstrasse

The Stones Fan Museum is a museum that pays homage to the English rock band The Rolling Stones, founded in 1962 . It is located in the district town of Lüchow in Lower Saxony in the Lüchow-Dannenberg district in Wendland , where it is managed by Schröder, a former bank employee Ulrich, known as "Ulli". The museum is a member of the Museumsverbund Lüchow-Dannenberg e. V.

History and background

Ulli Schröder, a long-time Rolling Stones fan and gallery owner of Rolling Stones guitarist and painter Ron Wood since 1997 , bought an empty supermarket building in Lüchow in 2008, which was gutted in 2010 and then expanded and converted. The city subsidized the private project, which it hoped would have a tourism-promoting effect, with 100,000 euros, on the condition that Schröder will run the museum for at least ten years.

The house was opened to visitors for the first time in May 2011; however, it was not fully implemented until April 2012.

The exhibits that Ulli Schröder has accumulated since 1965 include photos, posters, press articles, various sound carriers, gold records, marionettes and pinball machines in Rolling Stones design, admission tickets, backstage IDs, tour books, tour jackets, lingerie, works by Ron Wood and Roland Muri as well as a signed pool table that the band once took on their tours.

Schröder presents himself to the public in black tails and trousers, with fan badges and patches from top to bottom, as well as a feather-adorned cylinder adorned with a chain of lights (his interpretation of the Rolling Stones song Shine a Light ).

The museum operates an integrated Irish pub and provides musicians with a stage for performances. Played there, among other things been different rolling Stones- tribute bands , Blondie Chaplin , who supported the Rolling Stones at their concerts as an accompanist, and Chris Jagger , the younger brother of Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger .

The discussed urinals

At the beginning of 2012, the museum got into the international media after several women in Lüchow protested against the mouth-shaped urinals in the men's room, which they perceived as misogynistic, whereupon the region’s equal opportunities officer campaigned for the basins to be removed. The urinal model Kisses by Dutch designer Meike van Schijndel is reminiscent of the Rolling Stones' band logo and had previously triggered complaints from feminists elsewhere . Schröder refused to dismantle the urinals.

The anniversary photo book The Rolling Stones: 50 for the 50th anniversary of the band was presented for the first time in the museum on July 6, 2012. Schröder is shown in a photo in the book.

On Schröder's initiative, a Stones mural over a dozen meters in length was installed in Gartenstrasse by Heino Jacobsen. It shows a train that is supposed to be symbolic of the long history of the Rolling Stones.
