Findelgässchen

Findelgässchen
➽ Das Findelgässchen ist eine kurze, enge Gasse in der Altstadt von Augsburg. Durch ein Waisenhaus für Findelkinder, das hier im 15. Jahrhundert erbaut wurde, erhielt es wohl seinen Namen. Meine Oma, die in der Nähe wohnte, erzählte mir, dass dort auch noch Anfang des 20. Jahrhundert Babies ausgesetzt wurden.

➽ The "Findelgässchen" (Foundling alley) is a short, narrow alley in the old town of Augsburg. It was probably named after a orphanage for foundlings, built here in the 15th century. My granny, who lived nearby, told me, that there were still babies being abandoned at the beginning of the 20th century.
