Katzentürmle (City Fortifications), Bad Saulgau

Highlight • Historical Site

Beverage tax for the city wall, Bad Saulgau
The city fortifications were probably of poor quality from the beginning - also due to the notorious lack of money. As early as 1372, therefore, Duke Leopold III. the city the privilege of collecting a "wine fee", i.e. a kind of beverage tax, in order to be able to pay for repairs to the wall. The city's statutes also mention fines that anyone who breaks the wall has to pay. In any case, the Saulgau people seem to have had no confidence in the defensive effectiveness of their city walls. Because in 1641 the people of Riedlingen were informed on request, "... since the city wall had collapsed, one did not want to and could not defend oneself in the slightest."

Luegebrunnen

Highlight • Monument

A group of men, consisting of four bronze figures, gathers around him. "Three who talk at you," is how the artist Ernst-Reinhart Böhling describes his 1986 work. It's easy to see that the truth doesn't always come out. Hence the name Luege (Lies) Fountain.

St. John the Baptist Parish Church, Bad Saulgau

Highlight • Religious Site

Parish Church of St. John the Baptist, Bad Saulgau
In the place of today's parish church, which is dedicated to the patrons Johannes Baptist, Johannes Evangelist and Andreas, there was already a church from the 11th/12th. Century a significantly smaller predecessor church. In the middle of the 13th century the construction of the current church (choir and tower) began in the course of the city's development; the Romanesque sound openings in the tower still bear witness to this. The further late Gothic expansion and conversion to today's form with an enlarged, three-aisled nave and a raised tower took place in several stages and was completed in the first third of the 15th century.

Stork Tower and Witch Trials Information Boards

Highlight • Historical Site

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.

Bad Saulgau railway station

Highlight • Rest Area

The storks in Bad Saulgau are no longer wanderers. Nevertheless, they rattle in the spring and sound the alarm. Everyone who arrives or departs here by train should take a look at the neighboring roof.

Kreuzkapelle Bad Saulgau

Highlight • Religious Site

Cross Chapel in Bad Saulgau
The Cross Chapel was built in 1450 as a foundation, after 1634 it was also called the "Swedish Chapel" because of the legend about the salvation of the city from the siege by Swedish soldiers in the Thirty Years' War in 1634: Soldiers are said to have brought a cross (not necessarily the one that exists today) from the chapel to burn it. But suddenly it was bright and bright on the chapel wall, so that the Swedes ran away in horror. A thanksgiving procession of the citizens to the chapel then took place. The legend certainly has a core of truth – like many legends, the people of that time saw the salvation of the Swedish soldiery as God's help that they could experience.
