What you can expect

The “Leichenbitterin”, the “Totenlicht”, the coins under the tongue and the peas in the coffin – there were many rituals that were common at the time to make the step into the afterlife a dignified one. Some of these rituals still exist today. Follow the city storyteller of Ludwigsburg on a very intense history tour. Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of an old cemetery, hear exciting facts and ancient stories that tell of faith and superstition, and look death in the face. It's not about spookiness and goosebumps, but about understanding old customs and their roots. You will remember this tour for a long time.
