📍 Bamberg Crime Trail: Hunting witches - searching for clues in the shadow of history
Bamberg shows a particularly mysterious side on this crime trail: between historic alleyways, steep paths and legendary viewpoints, you will immerse yourself in a case that combines the past and present - and makes the city itself the backdrop for the investigation.
Your search for clues leads you through the winding old town of Bamberg, which is known as "Franconia's Little Rome" for good reason. As you question witnesses and follow up clues, you pass the university, whose traditional buildings combine academic history and modern city life. Continue on to Little Venice, where half-timbered houses line the Regnitz river in picturesque rows - a place that seems idyllic today, but was once the scene of hard times.
A hidden path takes you up to the monastery, from where you can enjoy an impressive view of Bamberg Cathedral. Sams House, inspired by Paul Maar's famous children's book character, is also on your way and provides a surprising contrast between fantasy and dark history.
Finally, high up at the beer cellars, you can expect not only one of the most beautiful views over Bamberg, but also a real local attitude to life. Three cellars invite you to linger - ideal for reviewing your previous findings over a smoked beer.
This crime trail combines city exploration, excitement and enjoyment to create a special excursion. If you want to experience Bamberg beyond the classic postcard motifs, you will discover history, atmosphere and mysteries around every corner.
