Description
I will take you on a journey through time, history and the Reformation.
We will visit the historical sites of the Reformation and you will see Zurich's Old Town from a unique perspective.
In the spirit of the Reformation, I will go into more detail on the background and history of the Zurich Reformation by Huldrych Zwingli. As an accredited Fraumünster tour guide, I will also take you on an additional journey into the history of the Fraumünster. In addition to the impressive Chagall window cycle in the choir and the large organ in the gallery, there are many other historical details to discover.
Of course, as we follow in the footsteps of the Celts and Romans on this tour, we will also make a stop at the Lindenhof, from where you have a breathtaking view over the Limmat and the city.
On our tour, you will discover numerous other highlights of historic Zurich.
This tour is a journey through time. I will enrich you with exciting stories and anecdotes ranging from the founding of Zurich to the present day. This is not your run-of-the-mill 08/15 tour. The in-depth background information I will provide you with makes this tour stand out from other offers.
