This isn’t a postcard stroll. It’s a two-hour Self-Guided Walking Tour through headless martyrs, rebellious monks, medieval power moves, and a train line built for pastries. You’ll follow Roman roads, climb Gothic towers, and stand where Zurich once scared off an army with a well-timed bluff. From ruling abbesses to stained glass dreams and a final stop in a former weapons depot turned beer hall, this tour peels back the polished surface of one of Europe’s most quietly chaotic cities. Wear good shoes, bring curiosity, and save room for sausage. Zurich doesn’t shout — but it never stays still.
