Guided Story
Imagine standing where people once lived on the outskirts of society. Right here, this was a leper colony in medieval times. Take a look around: the tranquil Laurensberg landscape speaks of isolation but also of resilience and community. Just to the north, you can see the Karlsgarten, a symbol of growth and healing – quite fitting, isn't it? Behind you, at a distance, is the Uniklinik RWTH Aachen, a modern hub of medical advancement. The architecture of Gut Melaten is timeless, blending the old with the new, like a silent guardian of the past. Let the peaceful surroundings envelop you and listen for the whispers of history echoing between these walls.
