Mia Hesse, née Bernoulli: Everyday life in Gaienhofen alongside Hermann Hesse 35-year-old Mia marries 26-year-old Hermann Hesse and moves with him to Gaienhofen, a place she chose herself. She exchanges the urban environment she has been accustomed to in her hometown of Basel for a secluded life in the countryside alongside Hermann as his wife and mother of three children. How does she deal with these upheavals, what moves her, what was her everyday life like, what difficulties did she have to struggle with? Longings, joys, and disappointments become clear as we walk through her room and other spaces she used, based on insights from her letters to Hermann from that time: a woman's life around 1900 in the shadow of her talented husband. A tour by women, not only for women.
