Overview

  • Dive into a time when faith was a physical journey and salvation required armed guards. This captivating tour reveals the hidden medieval heart of Neuss. You follow the tracks of desperate pilgrims who hoped for miraculous healing through Saint Quirinus, and discover how their arrival transformed a simple town into a heavily fortified, economically flourishing sanctuary. From received city gates and secret monastic armories to the impressive heights of the Quirinus Church, we reveal the glorious and often contradictory history of a city built on the promise of a cure.
