"Ars Amatoria - The Art of Love, with a Twist"

2026-07-03 @ 18:30

Love potions and love spells—a figment of the imagination and, at best, suitable only for the opera stage? On the contrary! In this guided tour—which is not entirely suitable for young audiences—you’ll learn interesting and entertaining facts about the art of casting “illegal” love spells and brewing medically effective love potions. But be warned: as ancient and medieval physicians assure us, medically certified “love sickness” is a serious diagnosis and can be fatal if left untreated… However, advanced enthusiasts eager to experiment can pick up all sorts of tricks from us: Perhaps you’re already familiar with Spanish fly and belladonna, but have you heard of the love cake? Do you know about the magical power of clipped fingernails? You’ll also have the chance to experience the effects of a historical aphrodisiac for yourself!
