Lichtenstein by Wilhelm Hauff

"Lichtenstein" by Wilhelm Hauff is a historical novel published in 1826. Set in Württemberg, it follows an invented character who witnesses the dramatic struggle between Duke Ulrich von Württemberg and the Swabian League. Inspired by Walter Scott's novels, Hauff crafted this romantic tale to celebrate German history and landscape with the same vivid storytelling Scott brought to Scotland. The novel idealizes Ulrich as a wronged ruler fighting to reclaim his rightful place, supported by his loyal people in a turbulent chapter of Swabian history.
