Death as a business in the 19th century. A tour of the cemetery in Hagenow with the Black Widow.

Death as a business and a cure: of body snatching, corpse fat and the hands of the dead - a tour with the Black Widow

Part 3 is all about the dead body. What is corpse fat and why were corpse hands so important? The fact that the body was a lucrative business becomes clear during this tour when the history of anatomy is examined in more detail. In addition, we will find out why severed hands of the dead were often found in churches and why corpses were often used in art.
