Transcript of text from the video:
Ok, because we are having an epidemic again at the moment. This was also very common in earlier centuries. The Black Death was the most feared in our region. - In 1637 the plague came to Podebuls - also to the guesthouse. The plague raged very hard there. | Almost the entire family was infected by the plague. - Then the first ones fell victim to the plague. In fact: On September 29, on St. Michael's Day, Georg died of the plague in the cellar house in Würchwitz. - Shortly afterwards, on October 10, Augustin Gratschn of Podebuls, stepson of Georg Meuche, dies. | Probably plague because he had brown spots on his body. Two days bedridden. - The following day he was buried with a song - not without song and sound as was customary at the time - in the churchyard in Lobas. - The next death from the family. On November 5, also Gratschn, stepdaughter Maria Meuchin, dies of the plague in the 15th year of her age. Buried the following day with song and verse in the churchyard at Lobas. | On the evening of November 15, both boys die in the Gratschn house in Podebuls. Hans, a stepboy of thirteen, Meuchen's son. And Barte, Grotschn's biological son at the age of 15 years and 16 weeks. Both of the plague. They were buried with a song and a verse in the churchyard at Lobas the following day. - And now the pastor added at the end of the year: All in all: In 1637 41 deceased. In the previous 1636th year 58 had died because of the plague. Among them my youngest daughter Magdalena, 14 years old. - Well, the year before the plague in Podebuls was very strong. You have to say that it was in the middle of the 30-year war. At that time, mercenaries constantly came to our region. - It was the time after the Battle of Lützen. First the Swedes brought the plague. Then the Holtschen horseman brought the plague here. By the way, General Holt then occupied and plundered the town of Altenburg. He had even settled in Altenburg with his troops, although the plague was raging there. | As a punishment from God, he had contracted the plague. | He had died near Adorf a few days after moving on towards Bohemia. | At that time about 350 people lived in the parish of Lobas. It has to be said that there were sometimes farmhands and maids from other places who did their jobs here. At that time, the farmer, the farmer's wife, a foreman, a little farmhand, a grandmaid, a little maid and about 8 to 12 children lived on a farm. | However, many children usually did not live to see the age of 6. They were mostly swept away at a young age by childhood illnesses. Of course, when the plague came, many were affected. You have to say that at the time of the plague, it was the 30-year war. It was famine, hunger crisis. There were other diseases too. | The people were already starving and very weak. - Anyone who got a serious illness - with fever and dehydration - would of course die sooner than a well-fed farmer who had something to counteract it. The poorer ones were hit the hardest. From what I had just read, the plague broke out in October 1637 at the guesthouse in Podebuls. 4 people died in a very short time. The others probably had the plague. But survived this. The great thing is. In our neighboring region, in Wernsdorf. - That's one kilometer from Kayna as the crow flies. - It's in Altenburg now, but it used to belong to Kayna. There lived a practitioner among medicine-minded people, named Adam Degenkolbe. He had developed a remedy for the plague. - In years of research and experiments, he had developed a great, effective remedy for the plague. After he died, there was a fair dance in Wernsdorf one day. And as it was, many were curious. | Because this remedy was sold far away from Wernsdorf and Kayna. | Degenkolbe had earned an incredible amount of money with it. | The farmer's sons and farmhands got Adam Degenkolbe's youngest daughter drunk with brandy and brown beer. As a result, by the witching hour, she had a fairly loose tongue and gave away the recipe. She said that she used to go to the neighborhood chicken pens with her siblings, her father and mother on full moon nights. The chicken poop was collected there. | This was then mixed with various herbs and pressed into a small bottle. - A note was pinned - Antipestilence. A wooden stopper was used as a closure. This highly effective remedy was delivered all over the world. For a certain fee, of course. | It was really very effective, because after that no more deaths from the plague were known here. If you had smeared yourself with this substance - in the armpit or groin area - you stunk more than the plague. But the pest flea hadn't bitten you anymore. - And you were no longer infected with the plague bacillus. There is a herb for every disease. There are other stories and videos here
