Frequently asked questions
What makes this quest special compared to a regular old-town tour?
Instead of just hearing facts, you’ll hunt for clues in Nuremberg’s medieval streets and piece together stories of merchants, craftsmen, and knights. It’s interactive, like stepping into a history game.
I’ve been to Nuremberg before—will I still find new things?
Yes! Even locals and repeat visitors are surprised by secret courtyards, little carvings, and quirky legends you’d normally walk past without noticing.
Is this a good idea for a date night or anniversary?
Absolutely. Picture strolling under the castle walls at sunset, solving medieval riddles together, and finding hidden spots for a quiet break—it’s different and pretty romantic.
What historic places will I see while playing?
Expect highlights like the Imperial Castle, Albrecht Dürer’s House, the old city gates and walls, and tucked-away lanes that feel straight out of the 1400s.
Could families do this, or is it mostly for adults?
Families with curious kids or teens will love it. The medieval setting and treasure-hunt style keep younger players entertained while adults enjoy the history.
