Ehrentafel für Wolfgang Hildesheimer an der Casa Gay, Poschiavo
In 1961, Wolfgang Hildesheimer and his wife moved to Casa Gay, where they lived on the first floor and where Wolfgang Hildesheimer lived until his death in 1991.

Description

"Our new apartment is a dream..." (1)

Behind the house is a large garden, the care of which is close to the hearts of Silvia and Wolfgang Hildesheimer:

"When I rubbed dried marjoram into a meat dish (spezzatini alla Christa) this morning, it occurred to me that I had not yet sent you the promised basil. That will be made up for tomorrow. This year's harvest was satisfactory, marjoram went straight, sage bad. This autumn we had the double load of manure sprinkled on the beds." (2)
