Audio guide13 stops

Zürich’s rivers reflect centuries of revolution and intellect, but the stones beneath your feet have witnessed far more than meets the eye. Uncover hidden scandals, mind-bending innovations, and secret rebellions as this self-guided audio tour leads you through winding streets and astonishing halls missed by the casual visitor. What vanished discovery at ETH Zurich once caused panic across Europe? Who at the University of Zurich ignited a debate that shook Swiss politics to the core? And what scandalous dealings swirled behind the old glamour of Jelmoli’s iconic walls? Follow these twisting paths and towering lectures, dive deeper than postcard views, and unlock the pulse of Zürich with every step and story. Eyes widen as overlooked squares and silent corridors come alive with intrigue and ambition. Ready to see Zürich's polished façade crack open and reveal its dramatic, restless heart? Your journey begins now.
