Every year at the State Museum of Archaeology in Constance, an exhibition takes place in cooperation with the toy company Playmobil. In 2014 the exhibition topic was the Council of Constance (1414-1418). The title of the exhibiton was ‘Voll bis unters Dach‘.

Hus Museum in Constance
The Hus Museum is situated at the Hus-Haus, which was supposed to be Jan Hus’ harbourage before he got arrested. During my stay in Constance, a historian told me this was wrong. Jan Hus did probably stay in another building. The Hus Museum is worth a visit anyway.
Stone of Hus in Constance
The stone of Hus (Hussenstein) marks the supposed spot where Jan Hus was burned at the stake on 6 July 1415. Though the black boulder was named after Hus it also reminds of another victim burned at the same spot: Jerome of Prague.
Imperia in Constance
The statue of Imperia stands at the port of Constance (Konstanz). It reminds of the Council of Constance in the years 1414-1418. [German]
