Who was Soulmother of Küssnacht?

The Soulmother of Küssnacht was a Swiss medium and an alleged witch in the city of Küssnacht in the canton of Luzern in Switzerland. In 1573 the priests of Luzern sent a formal complaint to the bishop of Konstanz about the great superstitions and beliefs in wise women, the occult and such. They pointed out one of these occultists, the very center of all superstition they disliked: a woman known as "The Soulmother" or "The mother of souls" in Küssnacht. Her case is a known example of a witch trial toward a medium.
