    Welcome to Ingolstadt! A quick note about English

    I'd love to show you around Ingolstadt and share its fascinating history with you!

    Actually, my tours are in German, and that's where I can really let the stories flow. I'm happy to guide English-speaking guests as well, but please don't expect Shakespeare just yet!

    I'm currently working on developing an English-language version of my tour. However, my English isn't fluent enough yet to tell every historical story in the same detail as I would in German.

    Nevertheless, I'm always happy to explore the city with English-speaking guests and share some interesting stories and my enthusiasm along the way. If you don't mind my English being a little imperfect, you're very welcome!

    Let's discover Ingolstadt together!
