Beneath the quiet Alpine peaks of Sarnen lies a tapestry of rebellion, devotion, and secret fortunes. Behind every ornate façade and tranquil square, whispers linger—from silent vows to thunderous uprisings. On this self-guided audio tour, slip through Sarnen’s storied heart and unlock hidden tales most wanderers overlook. Each step draws you deeper into the city’s true character, rich with surprises. Why did the bells of St. Peter and Paul once echo during a night of chaos? Who vanished without a trace behind the cloistered walls of the Monastery of St. Andreas? What unlikely connection links a local banking scandal to a centuries-old relic? Wander through cobbled lanes and sunlit courtyards. Feel tension and wonder grow as old stones reveal moments of defiance, intrigue, and forgotten glory. See Sarnen shift from postcard-perfect to breathtakingly alive. Get ready to uncover the secrets etched into the soul of Sarnen. Your journey begins now.
