Een van de schandstraffen die de rechtbank kon opleggen was het \u2018te kijk\u2019 zetten van een veroordeelde op een publieke, liefst drukbezochte plek. Daarvoor werd gebruik gemaakt van een gesel- of schandpaal. Deze praktijk leeft nog voort in de uitdrukking &#8216;iemand aan de schandpaal nagelen&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>In de praktijk werd er niet echt \u2018genageld\u2019 natuurlijk. De hier getoonde gesel- of schandpaal heeft bevestigingspunten voor een lijfbeugel en een voetbeugel, waarmee de veroordeelde werd vastgezet. Behalve voor het tentoonstellen kon de paal ook gebruikt worden om een misdadiger te geselen of te brandmerken. De zuilvormige paal is halfrond en aan de achterkant vlak, zodat hij eenvoudig aan een muur bevestigd kon worden. De herkomst van dit zeldzame strafwerktuig is helaas onbekend.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_font=&#8221;font-623990&#8243; text_size=&#8221;h3&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;571711&#8243;]Specificaties[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;331314&#8243;]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Vervaardiger: onbekend<\/li>\n<li>Datering: ca. 1750-ca.1850<\/li>\n<li>Objectnummer: 083<\/li>\n<li>Materialen: hout<\/li>\n<li>Afmetingen: hoogte 285 cm, diepte 38 cm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row unlock_row_content=&#8221;yes&#8221; row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;7&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; content_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;354896&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;80&#8243; align_horizontal=&#8221;align_center&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; font_family=&#8221;font-623990&#8243; [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1169,"parent":1175,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"collectie-categorie":[40],"class_list":["post-1256","collectie","type-collectie","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","collectie-categorie-topstukken"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
