Hiking

Here you can understand very well how justice was administered in the Middle Ages. The instruments of torture and execution on display give an idea of what happened to the accused when they refused to confess to the crimes of which they were accused.

Hiking

The Crime Museum in Rothenburg is the largest of its kind in Europe. Given the large number of exhibits and the huge wealth of knowledge on the subject of law, the admission price is more than justified.
