The museum has also received a trophy: The Egg by Henry Moore, which it will keep for one year.<\/p>\n<p>The Museum encompasses the important archaeological site of the 10th century capital for Muslim al-Andalus and a new museum building that serves as a research centre, visible storage, conservation and restoration facility, and as a space for exhibition and interpretation of a unique collection. The museum and the partially recovered and restored site document a magnificent, complex city, its supporting infrastructure, buildings and gardens, as well as the social organisation and everyday life of its 10,000 inhabitants. The Madinat al-Zahra Museum functions as a visual memory of the mixed and plural past of Andalusia, and thereby as a potential bridge between different cultures also in contemporary Europe. In every aspect of its work this museum displays a high level of excellence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Council of Europe Museum Prize goes to Rautenstrauch-Joest Museum \u2013 Kulturen der Welt<\/strong> (Cultures of the World), Cologne, Germany.<\/p>\n<p>The museum demonstrates a commitment to serve its multicultural public \u2013 adults and children alike \u2013 both in its exhibitions and in educational activities. All visitors will find something to admire and reflect upon. The museum is not only a window on world cultures but also, and predominantly, a place showing how cultures are formed and how they perceive one another, through exposure to one another. The museum holds up a mirror to prejudice and takes its visitors on a journey, which is simultaneously beautiful, exciting, clever and sophisticated.<\/p>\n<p>The Rautenstrauch-Joest Museum maintains an open and inclusive policy, aimed at bridging cultures and transcending social and political borders. Its creative use of cutting-edge information and communication technology establishes the conditions necessary to ensure access by the widest public possible.<\/p>\n<p>The Prize has been awarded by the Committee <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The European Museum of the Year Award 2012 goes to the Madinat al-Zahra Museum, Cordoba, Spain.
