The Magic Hall

From 1557 to 1668, there was a latin school within the convent, and during that time a mysteroius event happend in the space above the double cloister: The students had a break, laughed and chatted or played together. Suddenly, a student was trapped in a circle drawn with calk and could not move. Even his classmates were not able to pull him from the spot. Now the Rector was called, and discovered Greek letters and other strange characters in the eastern wall. Fortunately, he managed to decipher them and could lift the ban with a counter spell. It was never checked out who wrote the signs there, but it is a common thought that, a long time ago, a student lent books from the library and discovered content which was not good for him, but much to try out. Since then, the room is called "The Magic Room".
