    Pranger, Hainburg
    The pillory was set up again in 1957 on the Anger, the former main square of Hainburg (also Freyung). The square "pillar of shame" bears the year 1724, chains and handcuffs are replicas. The pillory originally stood near the church. The last recorded use of the pillory as a "pillar of shame" in the council records to punish an offender was in 1756.

      The medieval column of shame was located here, not far from the Freyung. Punishment and forgiveness can be so close together ...

        The pillory in the former main town square was last used in 1756.
