Kaspar Hauser: a beggar and a nobleman
卡斯帕•豪泽： 乞丐与贵族
Just as margraves and master builders from the baroque era have left their mark on Ansbach, so too has one of the most enigmatic figures of recent history: Kaspar Hauser. In 1828 he appeared in Nuremberg begging in rags and tatters – yet by the time he was stabbed and killed in the court gardens of Ansbach in 1833, he had shown himself to be a young nobleman, cultured, urbane and with a thirst for knowledge. Despite intense speculation, his identity is still unknown to this day. The town honours his memory with a fine statue and a memorial stone at the site of his murder. You can also learn more about him by visiting a new special section at the Margrave Museum or his grave, which bears the dedication "riddle of his time, his birth was unknown, his death mysterious". Ansbach has hosted the biennial Kaspar Hauser festival since 1998, but the whole town is a lovely place to visit all year round and has plenty of surprises in store for visitors.
与边疆伯爵和巴洛克建筑师一样，一位神秘的年轻历史人物也在安斯巴赫留下了印记： 卡斯帕•豪泽 (Kaspar Hauser)。 1828 年，他衣衫褴褛地出现在纽伦堡 (Nürnberg)。但 1833 年在安斯巴赫宫廷花园中被刺伤时，豪泽俨然已是一位年轻的贵族，他文明优雅、求知欲强并且彬彬有礼。 尽管众说纷纭，但关于他的真正身份，至今仍是一个未解之谜。 人们为他建造了一座颇具艺术造诣的纪念雕像以示对这位伟大神秘人物的敬重，而竖立在他遇刺地的纪念碑、边疆伯爵博物馆 (Markgrafenmuseum) 中为其设计的新独立展区，以及他的墓地，无不彰显着民众对他的认可。他的碑文上写着“时代之谜，身世不明，死亡情况神秘莫测。 此外，自 1998 年起，安斯巴赫每两年还会举办一次卡斯帕•豪泽节 (Kaspar-Hauser-Festspiele)。 实际上这整座城市就是一场感官盛宴，全年无休并充满惊喜。
