Guided Story

Can you feel the coolness of the fortress walls around you? These walls have stood strong for centuries. Look up at that massive tower. It once served as a watchtower, guarding against invaders, and now offers one of the best views of the city. Did you know that the Veste Oberhaus was never conquered? Imagine the medieval soldiers standing guard here. As you step inside the exhibition rooms, you'll find some of their armor and weapons. And as you wander through, keep an eye out for the hidden escape routes tucked within these thick walls.
