Townsfolk queuing to enter the town hall - stock illustration
The townsfolk of Hamelin in Lower Saxony, Germany, arriving at the Town Hall to discuss how to rid the town of rats which were plaguing it in 1284. The event inspired the legend of the Pied Piper who removed the rats by playing his musical instrument but when the townsfolk refused to pay him, he lured away most of their children. From “The Pied Piper of Hamelin†by Robert Browning, illustrated by Kate Greenaway, published by George Routledge & Sons, London, Glasgow, Manchester and New York in 1888.
