Wu Zetian

January 1st 2025

n the nearly 2,000-year history of the Chinese Empire, many rulers have sat on the throne. Always, they were men, with one exception: Wu Zetian (624-705).

Countless books have been written and films made about her fascinating life, yet Europe has never hosted a major exhibition dedicated to her legacy.

Through ancient treasures of unparalleled quality, this exhibition traces the captivating journey of a young girl who, starting as a concubine at the imperial court, rises through her unbridled ambition to become Wu Zetian, the first and only female emperor of China.
