Things to do Tour Between plague and superstition: Bonn's dark past

Why invent horror stories when Bonn itself has enough truth to tell? Behind the over 2000-year-old city walls lie dark chapters full of plague, witches' tribunals, medieval criminal trials, martyrs and forgotten cemeteries. This guided tour opens doors to a past that seemed long hidden - and which still echoes today in the quiet alleyways and old walls. Together we immerse ourselves in the gruesome events that have shaped Bonn: from eerie court records, superstitions and medieval punishments to mysterious gravesites that preserve dark stories. For a special thrill, we recommend the tour at nightfall - when the shadows lengthen and the city becomes the backdrop for its own legends. A gripping tour that will show you a Bonn that you are guaranteed never to have experienced before.
