Schubartstube
The Schubartstube in the former administrative building of the Blaubeuren monastery is a small literature museum . It commemorates the arrest of the poet, writer and publicist Christian Friedrich Daniel Schubart (1739–1791) in the building. The memorial was established in 1990 by the State Palaces and Gardens of Baden-Württemberg in cooperation with the Old Town Association of Blaubeuren and the Office for Literary Museums based in Marbach am Neckar .
exhibition
In the former cloister office, in which Duke Carl Eugen von Württemberg had the writer and publicist Schubart who had been lured here arrested on January 23, 1777, pictures and documents commemorate this event. Among other things, portraits, first editions of Schubart's poems, several volumes of his journal Deutsche Chronik and a facsimile of the ducal arrest warrant are shown. The illustrations for Eduard Mörike's story of the beautiful Lau (1853), which is set in Blaubeuren, deal with other aspects of the exhibition . In addition to the well-known silhouette by Luise Duttenhofer , the exhibits include the first edition and the lavishly designed splendid edition from 1872 with seven drawings by Moritz von Schwind , as well as a selection of later editions of this classic fairy tale. Another section reminds us of the now forgotten author Agnes Sapper , who temporarily lived in Blaubeuren.
