摘要:Aim: On the basis of a few examples from the early 15th as well as from the 17th and early 18th centuries, the departure of residents of Franconian-towns and places to Thorn can be sketched. The focus is made on the Würzburg family of Lindwurm, more closely on Jost of Lindwurm, whom the Würzburg City Council gave a letter of recommendation, dated on July 4, 1404, which has been preserved in the city archives of Toruń. Research method: Literature review and analysis of archival sources. Results/Conclusions: The motives for leaving the home region remain unknown, connections with the Teutonic Order are not recognizable. The article can illustrate in the major problem of intra-European migration.
