Heimathub starts: Discover the stories of your home!

An exciting new chapter for historical lovers begins! The highly expected "Home Traces" podcast series starts on December 6th and promises to kidnap the listeners on a captivating journey through the history of the Bavarian Untermain and the Main Spessart. Six episodes are planned on the website www.heimathub.de and about all common podcast channels. In the first episode, the creative minds give behind the project, including the city and collegiate archive as well as the archaeological Spessart project, exciting insights into the origin and motivation of the home.

The series is moderated by the archaeologist Katrin Vill, who enriches every episode with her knowledge. Various contributors will have their say in the upcoming episodes: Heidi Kolb tells the moving history of the Schüßler family from Glattbach, while Lina Schröder presents her fascinating research on the Kahlgrund. Rudi Dill brings the dialect of meaning and superiority to life and illuminates the writer Leo Weißmantel. The history of the Määhkuh is also alive in a podcast, including complex digital visualizations and new knowledge about their function.
