I worked in Jülich just shy of 6 years and never heard this story! I don't know if people know it and are shy about it or don't know it. But I've taken the tour of the citadel (which also serves as the local history museum) and didn't catch it there either.

So, I don't know why I am surprised that "fake news" came about more or less immediately after selling printed news became possible, but anyway, worth pondering. Making up stories that are interesting has always been easier than investigating true stories and writing about them in an interesting way.
