Guided Story
Imagine you're standing in a piece of living history. Look up at the intricately designed facades of the Spitäle. Did you know this building once served as a hospital for travelers and pilgrims seeking refuge? Centuries ago, people came here looking for healing and a safe place to rest. If you listen closely, you might almost hear the whispers of the old walls, telling stories of recovery and renewal. Turn around and let your gaze sweep across the square – all these monuments and fountains, like the Dreikronenbrunnen to the north, are testaments to a rich past converging here. Right at this spot, where history and present shake hands, you can let time stand still for just a moment.
