Around 1220 Konrad Fleck translated the romantic novel "Flore et
Blancheflor", written in 1160 by an unknown Provençal poet, into
High Alemannic. The complete work consists of about 8,000 verses.
Several fragments of an early copy of Fleck’s translation have
survived in the parish archives of Frauenfeld. The parchment pieces
had been used as a cover for a tribute register from the prebend of
St. Michael.
