A museum in southern Germany has dedicated a museum to the topic of why particular hats come back into fashion, and how headgear with religious symbolism – such as headscarves and kippahs, for example – can prove controversial.

”Headgear tells stories, and makes history, ” said Paula Lutum-Lenger, the director of Stuttgart’s Haus der Geschichte (House of History) museum.
