Regionaler Naturpark Schaffhausen - For more than 20 years, beginning in 1683, hundreds and thousands
of religious refugees arrived in Schaffhausen. They were fed, given medical care, provided with a travel allowance and sent on.

„Searching for huguenot signs in Schaffhausen“ we find a mixed group of noble ladies
and gentlemen, artisans, tradesmen and ministers, farmers, children and
also soldiers. Where did they come from? How did people react to them?
What did they want?
