Stefan Wolters MA

Function
Director

Stefan Wolters, director of the Geschichtspark, lives in St. Rochus near Bamberg and has been active in archaeology for over 30 years. He has acquired a wealth of experience conducting excavations all over Bavaria. Following initial courses in History in Braunschweig, he studied Archaeology, Prehistory and Early History as well as research into (historic) buildings at the University of Bamberg. His focus lies on Medieval Archaeology (600 - 1500 AD), with a particular emphasis on churches, castles and rural as well as urban settlements. For this enthusiastic scientist, history and archaeology are not only a profession, but a passion as well - as his long-time involvement in re-enactment and living history testifies. Something of a hands-on person, he has repeatedly created reconstructions for exhibitions, as well as installations for museums.
