Abstract
Currently, cultural heritage portals limit their users to search only for individual objects and not for objects related to some historical narrative. Typically, most museums select objects for an exhibition based on the story they want to tell the public, but in digital collections this context can currently not be made explicit as the historical context is not part of the object annotations.
