“The Tower Watchwoman” city play Ravensburg

Ravensburg, Germany

A city play set in 18th-century Ravensburg with the curious tower watchwoman Regina Nabholzin, played by Ana Schlaegel, Daniela Jakob or Angelika Wagner. ... There he stands on a footstool, dressed in black, and he breaks the staff over the condemned criminal and calls in a loud voice: ‘Death by hanging, may God have mercy on your soul.’ Then the Little little bell on the Obertor begins to ring. Let me tell you, the light, piercing sound goes right through you.’
