Commemorating the 150th anniversary of

Carl Gustav Jung's life and work.

This guide is for the walker and armchair tourist to walk in the footsteps of C. G. Jung in the city where he lived and studied during his formative years. Visit sites mentioned in Memories, Dreams, Reflections and many that were not. The tours are a circumambulation that offer glimpses into the rich history of Basel, the Jung and Preiswerk families, and the juxtapositions of history and modernity in a region undergoing phenomenal transformation during the years Jung lived there.

C.G. Jung: The Basel Years is a treasure trove of images and detailed information about Carl Jung’s historical connections with the city of his youth. Kathrin Schaeppi guides the reader on fascinating tours through a maze of narrow streets and old buildings that dramatically evoke the cultural and emotional atmosphere surrounding the young man who was destined to leave an indelible mark on his age and ours. This book is an invaluable supplement to Jung’s autobiographical classic, Memories, Dreams, Reflections.
