As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bern’s old town is known for its cobblestone alleys, long arcades, the Bern Minster, and its well-preserved sandstone façades. So far, so good. But the federal city has another side, a spooky one, filled with mystery, which is the focus of this tour. Over the course of an hour, the children visit the scenes of strange happenings and hear Bern's ghost stories, told in a child-friendly way. Learn, for example, why people sometimes hear mysterious footsteps in Brunngasse and when the witching hour begins in Bern. And if you happen to encounter a real ghost on the tour, you’ll even receive helpful tips on how to deal with it.

Children (and adults!) who can’t get enough of exciting stories can look forward to plenty of Bernese mysteries, for example of the giant that caused the bend in the River Aare or the hiding places of mermaids and dragons.
