Beyond the romantic myths of the Middle Ages, this historical tour conveys the harsh reality of those who once lived on the fringes of society. The world of the poor, needy, and outcast has always deterred people – and not infrequently fascinated them equally. A lot was always in flux. Over the centuries, the reasons that led to exclusion have also changed. The conditions in which the marginalized lived also changed. Organisations and institutions like the Hospital Foundation of Konstanz played a role in this. Now go on a journey through time through Constance with Seelfrau Magdalena or Bader Veit and immerse yourself in the fascinating world of the poor, the religiously persecuted, executioners, prostitutes, and many other marginalized people…
