The Collegium Jenense, as the central site of the university, reflects student life during the early history of the University of Jena like no other place in the city. It was a place where people lived, taught, celebrated, and died. At the same time, the area surrounding the Collegium courtyard formed its own distinct legal district. The lecture will explore how this special status shaped life at both the university and in the city of Jena.
