How Monks and the Common People Once Lived in the Countryside
If yesterday you experienced how the high nobility once lived in this region south of Stuttgart, today you will discover how monks and the common people in the countryside lived, worked and built their houses during this time. So you get a direct comparison of how life differed between the nobility, the monastery and the countryside.

Campus Galli
Museum
Open Details
In the Campus Galli, a monastery is built according to a plan drawn by monks before 830 AD on the monastery island of Reichenau in Lake Constance. This is the St. Gallen monastery plan. This makes it the oldest building plan in Europe.
On the basis of this plan, the monastery was built with the means and tools available to the monks of that time. A visit to the Campus Galli corresponds to a visit to a monastery construction site in the 9th century. The craftsmen and helpers involved in the construction do so dressed in the clothing of the time. The food corresponds to what people ate in the 9th century.
A visit to Campus Galli is a journey that takes you back centuries in history. Embark on an adventure that will show you how the monks and craftsmen of that time worked and lived.
Opening hours: Monday: day off (open on holidays in Baden-Württemberg). From 01 April to 29 October 2022: 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. From 30 October to 06 November 2022: 10:00 to 17:00
In the Kitchen of the Campus Galli you can taste for yourself how the food of that time tasted. However, you won't find coffee, tomatoes or potatoes there. These only came to Europe centuries later.
