Description

Discover Zurich not just as a charming Swiss city, but as the birthplace of a movement that shook Europe to its core. On this tour, we walk in the footsteps of Huldrych Zwingli — the bold reformer who, over 500 years ago, turned Zurich into a center of radical change. As we explore the atmospheric streets of the Old Town, I will show you where history was made: where sermons sparked revolutions, where ideas challenged centuries of tradition, and where a new chapter in European culture began. You’ll stand in the very places where Zwingli preached and debated, and I’ll bring the dramatic events of the Reformation to life with stories that connect past and present. Why did Zurich, of all places, become the cradle of reform? And what does that mean for Switzerland — and the world — today? As an accredited Fraumünster guide, I will also lead you inside one of Zurich’s most iconic churches. Beyond the breathtaking Chagall windows, we’ll uncover hidden layers of religious and social history that go far beyond art. We'll also stop at the Lindenhof, where the Romans once stood guard — and today offers a stunning view over the city that Zwingli helped transform. This is not your typical city tour. It’s a time-travel experience through rebellion, belief, and power. If you're curious about how Zurich shaped the course of European history — and want to see the city through a deeper lens — this tour is for you.
