Abstract

In 1837, a law was made in Bavaria with a title difficult to understand nowadays: »The elimination of district encumbrances from the state encumbrances and formation of district funds« (November 17, 1837; revised May 23, 1846) (█ Fig. 2.1a,b). From the title of the law it is not possible to realise what an important role it would play in psychiatric care.
