Lost & Dark Places Allgäu & Oberschwaben

The region entices with tranquility from Lake Constance to the Alps. But what happens when entire holiday villages lie abandoned, farms decay in the landscape, baths close, monasteries are demolished, castles are left to neglect, and alpine huts are abandoned? The holiday idyll quickly turns into a dark place backdrop. When witch hunts, plague epidemics, and charlatans with dubious methods are added, the beautiful surroundings can often become quite eerie.
