Zug's history(s) from a first source - public guided tours 2026
Overview
Intro
Exciting, surprising, significant - your look at our archive
Why did the 16-year-old self-proclaimed witch Katharina Kalbacher denounce 20 people in the last witch trial in Zug? And what happened to them afterwards? We open the door to our magazine and show you the interrogation protocol from 1737 - completely authentic from the time.
Our magazine contains documents covering over 700 years of Zug's history. We present an exciting selection of them. Among other things, you will see original photos of the suburban disaster of 1887 and take a look at the unveiled diary of Zug's first kindergarten teacher and artist Antonia Moos, alias Fräulein Immerfroh. We tell you the stories behind various historical finds and classify them - all from first-hand sources.
