In the foyer of the Moxy Bochum, an extraordinary exhibition opens for those who wish to experience James Bond not only as a film character, but as an international cultural phenomenon. Bond Exhibition – More than just 007 combines film history, pop culture, and passionate collector culture into an atmospheric art experience centered around the most famous secret agent in film history.
Film props, collectibles, and seven decades of Bond history
The exhibition showcases numerous objects from over 70 years of the Bond universe.

The collection reveals how the aesthetics of the Bond films have evolved between British elegance, technical fascination, and spectacular action.
James Bond between screen, literature, and the Ruhr area
A special emphasis is placed on the connection between James Bond and Bochum and Wattenscheid. The exhibition refers to the narrative that the famous agent was born on November 11, 1920, in Wattenscheid, according to the authorized biography by John Pearson. A replica of James Bond's ID, which confirms 007's birthplace, is one of the extraordinary exhibits.
Interactive examination of the work with voices from the film world
