A woman despised by the family of Manesse from the ruins of the venerable Manegg Castle in the hills of the Uetliberg in Zurich, it is said that she is haunting the place where she was seduced and ended her life, looking like passers -by in storm nights.
From the perspective of Swizzu, the Uetliberg hill perhaps there is not much peak, but it is Zurich's own “mountain”. From above, guests can enjoy a handsome view of the city and the lake – maybe even a look at the Alps. Uetliberg is particularly popular in November, because its peak is often above the blanket of the fog, which may cover the city at this time of year. In winter, hiking trails to the top are transformed into sleds.
It is also the location of ghost history that has persecuted these hills for centuries. The story of the spirit of a peasant girl who hanged herself on the hill of Uetliberg after she was betrayed by the cruel and lustful prince Menegga
Manegg Castle and the Maness Family
Today, the Manegg Castle is only ruins, and even ruins begin to disappear. Little is known about who built the castle, but the first we have comes from 1303. Manegg Castle Square was once a very visited place with a great view of the city, lake and mountain.
It was a family place for the Manesse Knightley dynasty. The Manesse family is known primarily with the support of Manesse Manuscript, a collection of medium German songs. Their coat of arms presents two fighting white knights on a red background, one of which is victorious. It is an articulate coat of arms; The name comes from Manesser, which means “Killer Man”.
The Maness family was originally buyers and rose to knighthood through their wealth and reached the peak of power between 1250 and 1310. As flying the abbey of Fraumünster, the Einsiedeln monastery and the German Empire, they were an crucial family in the city of Zurich in Zurich
In 1393, the castle was sold by Maness “Jews of Visla or Vifli” at a public auction, but it seems that the castle had no more apartment anymore.
Three beeches on Uetliberg
The girl was a handsome and adolescent girl from a nearby village house, more recovered by nature than the castle's ruins. She often met Lord of the Castle when after hunting or entered the city. They started talking, and soon seduces her through three beech trees on the hills. He told her that he would marry her and she finally gave up.
Then he rejected her and treated her chilly, losing her honor and innocence. To change her mind, she sat in front of the castle gate, hoping that she would notice and pity her. Instead, he just laughed and sent dogs for her, which ran into the forest on the hill and back to three beeches.
There, she cursed his name before she took her life. It is said that nearly three beeches on the hill were buried, and she would not be able to be buried as consecrated. The trees allegedly stood up to several decades ago.
The spirit of Uetliberg haunting storm nights
The stories began to be informed that someone was haunting the area around three beeches when she was buried. When the storms came over the city, and the thunder roared the fire from under the trees, even when it rained.
When the lightning flashed, illuminating the night, the travelers passing by saw a white figure, her long hair, taking her in the chest and twisting her hands, always looking at the older Manegg castle, in which the Lord came who betrayed her.
Now his castle burned down, fell apart, and his name most often forgot.
