Overview

Join us on a private tour back in time to the vanished world of a bustling medieval town where merchants haggled with dukes and priests offered eternal salvation for the right price. On our tour you will discover Munich's surviving medieval architecture and handle items from day to day life while you examine many aspects of life in a medieval city from the power of the guilds, how law and order was maintained, the conflicts of religion and the disaster of the Black Death.
