    When the train of the revolutionary Friedrich Hecker with 800 volunteers came to the city on April 18, 1848, the townspeople were anything but enthusiastic.

    Their leader, Hecker, gave a speech on the town hall balcony to spur the revolutionary zeal of the residents.
    Just two citizens followed the insurgents. "The Schopfheim moneybags," Struve later recalled, "were by no means inclined to sacrifice part of their property, let alone a drop of their precious blood, to the cause of the people."
