    Reminiscent of the mudbeisers (pronounced: schlamb:eiser), who disposed of the city's feces before the sewage system was built.

    The mudbeiser is a typical Giessen term and a nickname
    for real people from Giessen.

    @Madze:
    TheMudbeiser is only spelled with an s after the egg. The name has nothing to do with biting, but comes from the (mud) iron with which the waste buckets were pulled out from between the houses.
