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.

and gentlemen, artisans, tradesmen and ministers, farmers, children and
also soldiers. Where did they come from? How did people react to them?
