You come to the water tower, the Chapel Bridge, the Kornmarkt and the wine market, for example. Everywhere you go, you will learn what happened here centuries ago.

- Bring jackets and possibly an umbrella
- Every second tour of the month is guaranteed to be conducted in Swiss German. For all other tours, Standard German will be spoken as soon as at least one person does not understand Swiss German.
