What? The 30 Years' War represents a turning point for Rothenburg ob der Tauber. In the historical dungeon of the historical festival “Der Meistertrunk” e. V., visitors can examine weapons and uniforms from that era.
Quick fact: The cells in the basement dungeon are scary. The once rich and powerful mayor Heinrich Toppler also died here. The exact circumstances – was he even poisoned? – are, however, not historically proven.
