Highlights
Enjoy a unique experience in Bamberg directly with your smartphone. Let yourself be whisked away into the story of the witch hunts that took place in Bamberg. Our city rally was lovingly researched by us on site, created without AI, and has a genuine connection to Bamberg. As you solve the puzzles of this exciting story, you will pass by Bamberg's most beautiful sights. You solve the puzzles directly with and at the sights. Work in a team (1-6 people per group) to solve the case. Are there more than 6 of you (up to a maximum of 50 people)? Then we recommend splitting up into several small groups, otherwise experience has shown that not everyone is well integrated into the game. You can also test which group is the fastest! Use our city map to puzzle your way from station to station along the story. Solve the puzzles at the most beautiful sights. Move at your own pace and take a break whenever you want.

About Bamberg
Bamberg is an old town in northern Bavaria spread over seven hills and a river, with an imperial cathedral, a fishermen's quarter and smoked beer.
Bamberg lies in Upper Franconia on the Regnitz river, and its medieval and baroque old town, spread over seven hills, has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993. The four-towered cathedral holds the tomb of Emperor Henry II and the Bamberg Horseman, a mysterious knight carved in stone in the thirteenth century. The Old Town Hall stands on an artificial island in the river, linked by two bridges, with painted frescoes on its facade.
