Join the chatty wife of a spice merchant from the Hanseatic city of Bremen before the fear of missing out takes hold of you.

She has come all the way from the far north and will take you on an entertaining walking tour of medieval Bamberg. While she has left her husband to enjoy a few smoked beers at the Blue Lion Inn, she will shed light on the Dark Ages in her own unique way.

Before you kick the bucket, find out why her husband was called a “Pfeffersack” (a rich merchant), why she liked to make the local baker jump into the cesspit, and what the saying “Wein auf Bier, das rat ich dir” (wine after beer, that's what I recommend) really means.

What this special tour of the Middle Ages is not about: architectural and artistic styles, the family trees of all the rulers of the Holy Roman Empire, including the in-laws, explanations of all the depictions of saints on the corners of houses, etc.
Emma will tell you the fascinating stories behind the history and give you a glimpse into the everyday life of a proud Hanseatic woman in the late Middle Ages.

Not a tour of the Middle Ages like any other –
Emma has a soft spot for you!
