Myth and Legend: The Best Supernatural Landmarks of Germany

Mölln
Although it seems at first like a small, quiet town in the North of Germany, Mölln is a significant place in Germany mythology and legend because of one person who once lived here. Till Eulenspiegel was a traditional trickster figure of Germany mythology – an itinerant man who wandered the world, exposing wrongdoings and playing tricks on those who would seek to fool others.
There are many stories of his exploits, most of which revolve around Eulenspiegel convincing unsuspecting people to eat his own feces. Till Eulenspiegel was thought to have died and been buried in Mölln, and even though no one can say whether he was real or not, there are monuments throughout the town and even a gravestone marking his tomb.
