Overview
Intro
Public guided tour on the subject of health in the castle.
The Hallwyler pharmacopoeia from the 16th century contains a recipe for every ailment. Medicinal plants grew around the castle. However, the medicines were not always useful: plague and leprosy also affected the nobility, and many a birth ended fatally.
The people at the castle disposed of their waste through rubble stones and cesspits. Remains have survived the centuries in the mud of the moats. The archaeological finds reveal how people once lived at Hallwyl.
A tour of health and illness in times gone by, true to the motto in the pharmacopoeia: "There is nothing higher on earth than the health of the liver".
