Wir beschwören das Glück durch das Suchen eines vierblättrigen Klees oder bannen das Unheil durch das Berühren von Holz. Auch Gegenstände sollen Glück bringen oder vor dämonischen Wesen und anderen Gefahren schützen. Klara Spichtig zeigt und erklärt beim Rundgang durch die Ausstellung Breverl, Amulette, Kreuze, Messer, Puppen und Weiteres.
Listening to them gives you the shivers.
Folk tales tell of extraordinary, supernatural, or miraculous incidents. They recount stories in which ghosts, witches, even the Devil himself feature, or they may deal with historical figures and events.
Traditional tales are known from all parts of the country, but central Switzerland is especially rich in them. The exhibition focuses on well-known legends such as the tales of William Tell, the miraculous “Devils Bridge”, the fateful “Black Spider”, the fiery “Pilatus Dragon”, the enchanted “Blüemlisalp”, the vengeful “Sennentuntschi”, and the spooky “Toggeli”.
