Somewhat hidden behind the tithe barn of Lorsch Abbey, a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site, is a herb garden dedicated to the Lorsch Pharmacopoeia that speaks of mysterious powers. A working group from the local history and culture club tends to over 200 plant species here and also preserves the knowledge about the oldest surviving medical book from the early Middle Ages.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The herb garden is still asleep. In the morning, its terraces lie in the shadow of the tithe barn. But the garden awakens with every metre the spring sun climbs higher\u2014terrace by terrace, bed by bed. Bettina Walter walks along the dry stonewalls, the gravel crunching beneath her shoes. She walks past wallflowers, which are opening their vibrant yellow-orange blossoms, and rosemary, around whose delicate lilac flowers numerous bees and bumblebees are buzzing, and past the monk\u2019s pepper and the Madonna lily, which are still in hibernation, until she stops in front of a tall flowerbed. \u201cThis is where the cough remedy grows,\u201d she explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it is not yet possible to make cough syrup from these little plants. But in summer, when hyssop rivals lavender with its intense purple flowers and when horehound blooms white, you could actually use its leaves to make tea\u2014just as the monks of Lorsch Abbey did over 1,000 years ago. They recorded it in one of the many recipes that have been handed down to this day\u2014in a manuscript that appears simple and unassuming, yet brings together the knowledge of centuries. The Lorsch Pharmacopoeia is one of the most significant medical manuscripts of the early Middle Ages, preserving knowledge from antiquity with the herb garden as a walk-through version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bettina continues along the gravel path until it disappears behind the tithe barn. She arrives at a small garden shed, situated in a recess between the old monastery wall and the barn. The shed is crammed full of boxes, watering cans, spades and rakes. The working group of the local history and culture club meets here every Wednesday to look after the herb garden. Bettina has been its spokesperson since 2017. Little by little, the club members arrive. All of them are volunteers. \u201cThere are a good 15 of us, and we all bring our own expertise to the table,\u201d explains Bettina; there are professional and amateur gardeners as well as people who look after the paths or keep the irrigation system in good working order. For the latter however, there is full-time support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The herb garden has been in Lorsch since 1982. Back then, a small garden was created next to the Nibelungenstra\u00dfe route, inspired by the poem written by the monk Walahfrid Strabo about the 24 plant species in his little garden. It was primarily the late Adelheid Platte from the club who championed the herb garden. Her aim was to show visitors to the monastery premises how the monks practised horticulture and medicine in those days. The club only established the link to the Lorsch Pharmacopoeia a few years later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to get rid of your freckles, you have to boil a gecko.<\/p>\nBettina Walter on a recipe from the Lorsch Pharmacopoeia<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Although the pharmacopoeia had long been known, it was not until the 1960s that the historian Bernhard Bischoff discovered that the Codex Bamberginsis medicinalis with its 482 recipes had been written in the scriptorium of Lorsch Abbey. Walter presents a facsimile <\/a>of the work. Page after page is filled with text, written in Latin, in uniform Carolingian minuscule. Adelheid recognised the significance of the work for the town, and the local history and cultural club and eventually succeeded in persuading the town of Lorsch\u2014with the support of the pharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim\u2014to fund a doctoral post at the University of W\u00fcrzburg in the late 1980s. Ulrich Stoll translated the text into German, thereby making it accessible to people without knowledge of Latin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>

With the publication of his work in 1992, the idea finally arose to expand the garden planting herbs that are mentioned in the Lorsch Pharmacopoeia. However, in 2013, the herb garden, just like the peony bed, had to make way for the redesign of the monastery premises. The peonies were moved to the garden of the Protestant church while the herbs were moved to the strip behind the tithe barn. It is now somewhat hidden away and in its seclusion has something of a wild, romantic oasis of tranquillity. It expresses a stark contrast to the clean, minimalist landscaping of today\u2019s premises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
An idyllic haven of peace within the monastery premises.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It was around this time that Bettina, who came from T\u00fcbingen, joined the herb garden working group. She studied biology and geography to become a teacher and now teaches at the Ludwigsburg University of Education. She moved to Lorsch to be with her husband in 2007. When the Lorsch local history and cultural club teamed up with the town council to train tour guides in 2009, she seized the opportunity. \u201cFor me, it was a great opportunity to get to know my home town better,\u201d she explains. Through her new role, she got to know Adelheid and the working group. \u201cI found the combination of practical gardening and the historical and medical background very exciting.\u201d And as a biologist, she quickly settled into the working group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Bettina thinks a particular treasure the garden holds is the over 200-year-old cornelian cherry.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Bettina pulls the German translation of the Pharmacopoeia from the burgundy-coloured slipcase. This version may be less pretty, but it is clearer and easier to read. She pauses as she comes past a recipe for shingles. \u201cAh yes, you need hemlock juice for that,\u201d she murmurs. Spotted hemlock doesn\u2019t grow here, however. \u201cMuch too poisonous to be grown in a show garden,\u201d she explains. \u201cSocrates could certainly confirm that,\u201d she adds. The ancient philosopher was executed by drinking a cup of hemlock. But coriander and black elderberry as well as other plants in the recipe actually do grow in Lorsch. \u201cThen add egg yolk,\u201d Bettina reads on. \u201cThen brush the mixture on with a feather and sprinkle the ashes of burnt millet over it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Boiled geckos and slug ash\u2014some of the recipes in the pharmacopoeia are rather unusual.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Bettina smiles and points to the next recipe. It is a remedy for ergot poisoning, which uses earthworms boiled in vinegar. \u201cAnd if you want to get rid of your freckles, you have to boil a gecko,\u201d she reports. Her colleague Ulrike Pavel adds: \u201cAnd the ashes of a slug help with foot pain!\u201d The two women laugh; which is often the case, Ulrike reports. \u201cSome things do seem rather strange to us today. But alongside superstition, the pharmacopoeia contains precise scientific observations and findings.\u201d Medicinal plants such as hyssop, horehound and ivy are, after all, still used in cough syrups today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>

The pharmacopoeia gained its historical significance not least because of its preface, says Bettina. \u201cIt is a defence of medicine. The monks defended it against the reservations some Christians had, because they saw it as an unacceptable interference with God\u2019s plan.\u201d The author argues that the powers of medicinal plants are just as much a gift from God, and that helping others with medical knowledge follows the commandment to love one\u2019s neighbour. UNESCO <\/a>included the manuscript in the Memory of the World register in 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Anyone who enjoys working with herbs and plants is welcome to join in the gardening here.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, every bed is being raked, trimmed, planted and labelled. Anyone who enjoys working with herbs and plants is welcome to join the working group. Those who prefer just to look around can also take a guided tour led by the volunteers. Furthermore, other organisers offer programmes in the herb garden, such as a wine tasting or a herb-based menu<\/a> featuring herbs from the garden or a workshop<\/a> <\/em>for families recreating two recipes from the Lorsch Pharmacopoeia. But don\u2019t worry, the remedy recipes for shingles, freckles and foot pain are certainly not included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
