At Gut Melaten, the Karlsgarten was created after the Capitulare de villis vel curtis imperialibus Charlemagne. In terms of their importance, the plants in the Karlsgarten are equivalent to a medieval pharmacy. They were not so much food as they were remedies for people in the Middle Ages. (Wikipedia)
