Guided Story

Take a look at those walls—they hold stories you wouldn’t believe at first glance. Did you know that behind these sturdy stones lies a world that has shaped the fate of many over the centuries? Imagine in the early hours of the morning when the city is still asleep, the footsteps of guards echo here, like whispers from the past. Just behind you, near the triumphal arch, the city’s life continues unabated, as if this place is merely a silent witness. The architecture of the Konstanz Correctional Facility captures its serious nature, yet here in the neighborhood of Paradies, there's a certain contradiction that makes you ponder. If you glance to your right, you can see the district court, where decisions are made that affect many lives. Walk around and let the history of this place sink in.
