On the 31st of August 2014 we visited the village and its Archives and Museum Schleitheimertal. Both are managed by Mr. Willi Bächtold with extreme zeal and competence. We learned a lot in these well organized institutions. We thank to Mr. Bächtold for his warm welcome and support.
At the Gemeindearchiv we have checked the first records of Huber's life: his birth record made by the midwife (Hebamme) Fida Pletscher and the baptism record 14 days after his birth. To know more about the Gemeindearchiv Schleitheim, please click here.

Sehr interessant! Das sind Blogs, die ich meinen ausländischen Studenten im Studienkolleg gerne zeige. Da lernt man was über deutsche Kultur, und die Fotos gefallen mir auch sehr gut. https://www.studienkolleg-paderborn.de/
