LOOKING FOR FRANKENSTEIN
Ingolstadt. English novelist Mary Shelley started the science fiction genre, and elevated Ingolstadt to a city known worldwide when she wrote Frankenstein novel. Today Ingolstadt is a industrial bustling city, with a historical centre of medieval cobblestone roads lined with trendy shops and cafes. But many tourists arrive here seeking the haunted footsteps of Shelley's monster and ghosts like him, on Dr. Frankenstein's Mystery Tour. Ingolstadt resident Michael Klarner plays the blood-covered Dr. Frankenstein, leading his guests by lantern light through the darks alleys of Ingolstadt. The Deutsches Medizinhistorisches Museum (the German Museum of the History of Medicine) was once the anatomical institute of the former Ingolstadt University.
