Augsburg city tour about the wives of the Fuggers and Welsers
Germany Augsburg
Details
Join a guided tour of Augsburg and get an exciting insight into the lives of the wives of the Fuggers and Welsers around the year 1500.
On this guided tour of the city with a costumed actress, you will meet various female protagonists who lived around 1500. They provide interesting and lively insights into a chapter of Augsburg's history that has been largely unknown until now.
What is actually known about the wives of the Fuggers and Welsers? Why did Jakob Fugger exclude women from all business transactions? Why were the important roles of Jakob Fugger's mother and grandmother concealed in the family's book of honor? What was Sibylla Fugger's relationship with her husband Jakob like? What exciting life stories are hidden behind the names Margarete Peutinger and Philippine Welser? These questions and many more will be answered during the city tour of Augsburg.
The subsequent visit to the Fugger and Welser museum shows the far-reaching influence of the two Augsburg merchant families.
