Product Info

There have always been bad boys (and girls) in Cologne...

On this fascinating city tour, we'll talk about real, historical crimes, legal systems and punishments that took place in the city of Cologne – assault, murder and manslaughter, theft, robberies, kidnapping and hostage-taking were also happening in Cologne 500 years ago.

Learn about some crimes at their original locations on this fascinating walking tour through Cologne's city center.

Find out why buying a book ended on the gallows and how alcoholism almost proved fatal for a baker. We will tell you about a murder that took place during a papal visit and why honor was important in the Middle Ages, and how a cassock once served as the attire of a murderer. And much more!

A historical true-crime walking tour that sheds light on documented cases and their social context.
