Thousands of cultural treasures from Germany\u2019s former Hohenzollern imperial family will remain on permanent display in museums in Berlin and Brandenburg, the country\u2019s new minister of state for culture, Wolfram Weimer, has announced..<\/p>\n

After a dispute lasting almost 100 years, the descendants of the last German emperor have reached a landmark agreement with the federal government and with the states of Berlin and Brandenburg, he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis agreement is a tremendous success for Germany as a cultural location and for the art-loving public,\u201d Weimer said in Berlin.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor a hundred years, there has been ongoing uncertainty about objects that are central to the art and collection history of Prussia and thus to German history as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n
