Kerner Justinus

The German poet and doctor Justinus Andreas Christian Kerner (1786-1862) studied medicine and natural sciences in Tübingen (Baden-Württemberg). He practised as a doctor in Weinsberg from 1819. Among other things, he carried out scientific experiments on the influence of wine on the psyche, for example on the effects of Riesling on the nervous system in comparison with wines from other grape varieties.

Poems and folk songs

He had an intimate relationship with the vines and with wine, which he also enjoyed in abundance. In prose and poetry, he paid homage to his beloved juice and wrote numerous poems, which were also set to music and became folk songs - such as the well-known "Wanderlied"("Wohlauf noch getrunken den funkelnden Wein! Farewell now, dear ones, you must part! Farewell now, you mountains, you fatherly house! It drives me mightily out into the distance).
