What you can expect

Time jump to 1737: Medicine in the Baroque era – interactive and sometimes risky.

Got a sore knee? A tooth that's festering? Dry cough? In the Baroque era, there were no doctors for citizens like we know them today. But people knew how to help themselves: There were all sorts of remedies from herbalists, and there were bathers and charlatans. And everyone praised their skills, no matter how beneficial or pernicious it was. Johanna Bader, an 18th-century woman who donned men's clothing to practice her grandfather's profession, tells us about hygiene, dental treatment, orthopedic ailments, and all sorts of curiosities. Learn first-hand and solve many mysteries of the past.
In this interactive tour, you'll have to solve tasks, participate, and have a few teeth pulled when it comes to 'the good old days'. You'll be guided through the most beautiful squares of Ludwigsburg, past the sights of the old town, to selected locations. A great afternoon/evening awaits you.
