    In the Middle Ages, but especially in the early modern period up to the 18th century, around 100,000 people fell victim to witch hunts across Europe. The church and the judiciary created the conditions for the mass persecution of undesirable or non-conformist people through the Inquisition and criminal law. In Saulgau, as in many other cities, witch trials also took place, with 29 cases resulting in an execution. The vast majority of these trials took place in the 17th century - in Saulgau only women were among the victims. In 2017, a memorial plaque was erected in their memory at St. Antonius Church.
