Description
This isn’t just a ghost tour. It’s a journey into the stories we tell when the lights go out, and the stories that tell us something about ourselves.
Led by Conny, a local theatre and film scholar, this atmospheric evening walk explores Munich’s darker legends from a different perspective. Rather than simply recounting spooky tales, we ask why these stories haunt us and what they reveal about our fears, history, and society.
From the devil’s footprint in the Frauenkirche to the witch trials of St. Michael’s Church, from the legend of the “Schiache Luz” to the cursed merchant of Maxtor, each stop reveals another side of Munich’s darker past.
You’ll hear stories of ghosts, witches, devils, death, guilt, and the supernatural, while discovering the historical beliefs and anxieties behind them. Some stories were warnings, some were attempts to explain the unknown, and others survived because people simply could not stop telling them.
Expect atmospheric storytelling rather than costumes, actors, or cheap jump scares. Walk through Munich after sunset and see familiar streets, churches, courtyards, and monuments from a very different perspective.
Along the way, enjoy a Kirschgeist shot (for a little courage). During the winter months, a warming Glühwein is also included.
The tour starts near Marienplatz, lasts approximately 2 hours and ends at Sendlinger Tor.
