Description
Discover the history of the witch hunt in Bamberg. On this walk you will not only learn about the dark past, but also about the city's history and how it has been dealt with until today.
One of the darkest chapters in Bamberg's history is the persecution of witches, to which hundreds of citizens fell victim in the 17th century. The hunt for witches and sorcerers was by no means limited to red-haired women or elderly mothers, as common clichés would have us believe, but included men and women from all social classes up to Bamberg mayors. Anyone who ended up in the "Trudenhaus," Bamberg's witch prison, was as good as lost.
This tour takes you into the long history of witch hunts in Bamberg. On this walk you will not only learn about the dark past, but also about the city's history and how it has been dealt with until today.
