Original: Was Skelette über die Vergangenheit erzählen und warum 22.000 Menschen unter dem Domplatz von St. Pölten gelagert waren

Around 22,000 people were buried under the cathedral square in St. Pölten, Austria, and journalist Florian Klenk and forensic expert Christian Reiter discussed what these skeletons reveal about the town's past. The conversation, shared via Falter Radio, covers what forensic examination and autopsies can tell us about historical lives and deaths in the Lower Austrian capital.
