English summary: It is well-known that migration in the early modern period had many causes. There were religious fugitives, economic migrants and pilgrims in this period, and labour migration and mass pilgrimages also took place. All these migrants were bearers of cultural traditions. They saw works of art, learned foreign languages and customs and brought many cultural influences back home, where they inspired to new creativity, sowing the seeds of new ideas. Thus, migrants became important agents in the formation of a European culture - a culture that was never autonomous, but thrived on exchange and transfer. On the basis of a broad definition of migration, the essay traces the diverse relations between migratory movements and culture. German description: Migration hatte auch in der fruhen Neuzeit bekanntlich viele Ursachen. Die Epoche kennt Glaubensfluchtlinge, sie kennt Wirtschaftsmigranten und Pilger, sie weiss von Arbeitsmigration und Pilgerreisen. Alle diese Migranten hatten Kultur im Gepack. Sie sahen Kunstwerke, lernten fremde Sprachen und Gebrauche kennen und nahmen vieles davon zuruck in ihre Heimat. Dabei wurden die Anregungen oft weiterentwickelt: Eigenes, Neues bildete sich. So wurden die Wandernden zu wichtigen Agenten der Formierung einer europaischen Kultur, die niemals autochthon war, sondern von Austausch und Transfer lebte. Auf der Grundlage eines weitgefassten Migrationsbegriffs geht der vorliegende Essay den vielfaltigen Beziehungen zwischen Wanderungsbewegungen und Kultur nach.
