Available as online or in-house workshops!
Witches & Bitches
What is a witch? Does magic exist? What does the flight on the broom have to do with intoxication? And what do witches, executioners, whores and gamblers all have in common? Why were there far fewer witch burns in the Middle Ages than in the early modern times? How come that people were convinced that witches had wild sex with the devil and what role did the church play? What happened at a witch trial and why did the supposed witch have to be burned?
Immerse yourself in a time when faith, superstition, torture, sex, prostitution and execution went hand in hand.
Find out why the hangmen had to wear bells, how they, though ostracised, managed to attain a modest level of prosperity and what his sideline as a pimp and the sale of bodily fluids had to do with it.
This workshop also provides insights into the basics of rituals, spells, and the power of herbs. Bring some magic into your life and learn how to enchant your everyday life with common kitchen herbs and spices!
For the online workshop you will receive the herbs and spices delivered in advance.
The Fascinating World of Beer (with beer tasting)
The history of beer is as diverse as it is fascinating!
Where does beer come from? Why was the law of purity introduced? Why does the Oktoberfest take place in September? Why is Oktoberfest beer stronger? Why was wheat beer illegal in Bavaria? Why do people toast?
How did Munich, a former wine city, become the most famous beer metropolis in the world? Why were there so many monastery breweries? Why did brewers use the Star of David? Why are you allowed to bring your own food to Munich beer gardens?
In this interactive workshop you will find the answers to these questions and much more! Various beer specialities will be tasted (for the online workshop you will get the beers delivered in advance).
