To the executioner!

Until well after the Middle Ages, the executioner was one of the representatives of the so-called „corrupted“ professions. Was he part of the community? He was not allowed to exercise a municipal office and remained separated from the rest of the company by strict regulations. Nevertheless, he was an important and feared part of the legal system due to the execution of the corporal punishments. With Sebastian Buchner, this time in the guise of a late medieval executioner, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of a jurisdiction that was practiced in our city for centuries.
