About this listen
In 1828, a teenage boy appeared on the streets of Nuremberg, Germany. He was disoriented, barely able to speak, and carrying only a mysterious note. He claimed to have been raised in total isolation, sparking one of Europe’s most baffling identity mysteries. Was Kaspar Hauser a lost heir, a pawn in a political conspiracy, or something else entirely? In this episode, we unravel the strange life and sudden death of the boy known as Kaspar Hauser.
