Gilching's Past Comes Alive: New Insights into Kiltine, Luis, and the Weaver
On Wednesday, November 11, 2026, Annette Reindel will lead an exploration into the fascinating world of early medieval archaeology at SchichtWerk – Time Travels in the Wersonhaus in Gilching. The lecture and meetup will focus on the skeletons discovered in Gilching: Kiltine, Luis, and the Weaver.
Archaeology that Tells Personal Stories
The three skeletons were discovered during excavations in Gilching in 2012 and are among the significant early medieval finds in the region. Scientific investigations in anthropology, paleogenetics, and pathology have since provided new insights into the origins, living conditions, and identities of the deceased.
From the Find Site to the SchichtWerk Museum
Annette Reindel, director of the SchichtWerk Museum and chairperson of the Zeitreise Gilching association, has been involved in researching and communicating these finds for many years. Her contributions have helped develop an event and museum offering that makes local history tangible and presents archaeological research in an understandable way for a broad audience.
In the lecture, scientific findings meet vivid local history. The names Kiltine, Luis, and Weaver give the skeletons an individual perspective and turn anonymous finds into concrete life stories. Visitors experience archaeology not as an abstract discipline but as a direct connection between the past, the find site, and today's community.
An Evening for History Enthusiasts
The event is aimed at anyone interested in archaeology, early medieval history, anthropology, and the development of Gilching. The serene atmosphere of SchichtWerk provides the perfect backdrop for an informative evening with regional relevance and scientific depth.
