About

Automatically translated from German

This guided city tour explores witch hunts in Zurich's territory, where 85 people were executed between 1487 and 1701. The tour explains how witch trials worked, how the population viewed witches, and how artists depicted them. It introduces Agatha Studler, the only woman executed as a witch within Zurich city itself, and examines why women were disproportionately targeted during these persecutions.
