The robbers from the Mainhardt Forest were a gang of robbers who were up to mischief in the Mainhardt Forest at the end of the 18th century.
Towards the end of the 18th century, a gang of robbers formed, primarily from the residents of the Mainhardt Forest. They attacked and robbed travelers and trade trains on the long-distance roads in the Mainhardt Forest and in the near and far surroundings.
The names of 53 of the robbers, who only addressed each other by nicknames, are still known today.
The robbers carried out the raids in the so-called fox manner - that is, not near their homes, but far away from home, mainly on the territory of foreign rulers. To this end, they undertook some amazing marches. (from Wikipedia)
