This tour is only available in German.

On this tour you will discover the wonderfully diverse highlights of Essen's city centre, which are always surprising. Even Essenians can become explorers here.

Starting at the main station, the tour takes us around the pedestrian zone to hidden details in supposedly well-known places. We discover disappeared swimming pools, the old synagogue, modern art and historical traces. And an Unperfect-house.

Passing the Colosseum Theatre and the Europahaus, we head back through the city centre towards the station.

Entertaining tasks and exciting questions await you at the tour stops. Who knows, for example, who Cosmas and Damien were, what they mean for Essen and where they are now? Or where the probably most beautiful selfie spot in Essen is? Or the Speakers Corner for public speaking? Find out!

The tour is a great way to get outside and discover new things with family, friends or on your own.

It's like being shown Essen's city centre by a good friend.

The tour can be started anytime and over and over again, on site or from home, in the browser of a smartphone.

Have fun in Essen!
