Life

Wasserburger was the oldest son of the Garching innkeeper and butcher.

The first passages of the "Wirtsepperl-Lied" have been known in Upper Bavaria since 1855. Verses written later portray him as a deserter and freedom-loving lawbreaker since the 20th century.

The restaurant in Garching today bears the name "Wirtsepperl".
