Turm in Flammen
In the organizer's words:
There is a fire! On the night of December 14, 1875, the "Eberhardtei" is ablaze. Many people know the house on the Neckar for its popular hot baths. And more disasters followed: The city is subsequently plagued by a whole series of devastating fires. The rumor of the Tübingen firebug goes around. The dog belonging to the owner of the baths, Eberhardt, remains missing and the writer Bruno Wille recalls Mörike's ballad of the Fire Rider.
What does all this have to do with Hölderlin? And above all: who is responsible for the suspected arson?
A detailed police file on the night of the accident, which is now available again after around 150 years, leaves little doubt that an arsonist must have set the fire.
Despite existing suspicions, the public prosecutor's office did not press charges at the time. Today, we can reconstruct the night of the fire using the police file and the interviews with witnesses and suspects it contains.
Let's reopen the case!
