Embark on the Zürich Audio Tour: Hidden Stories of Faith, Fortunes & Frontlines

Blood once stained the banks of the peaceful Sihl River and secret fortunes shifted behind Zürich’s prim facades. The city hides more than stunning alpine views.

Tune in for a self-guided audio journey through Zürich’s heart, weaving past famous landmarks and quiet corners most tourists never notice. Reveal histories layered beneath cobblestones and skyscraper glass.

Who gave the fateful order at the Battle of St. Jakob an der Sihl that changed Swiss history in a single afternoon? Why did a legendary shopping paradise like Jelmoli ignite whispers of scandal and reinvention? What secret symbols are tucked high on the UBS walls, hinting at power plays invisible to passing crowds?

Uncover Zürich’s wild side as you walk—retrace battle lines, sift through shopping revolutions, and decode secrets in stone and steel. Let every step pull you into stories hiding in plain sight.

Face the city’s shadows and let the untold Zürich call you in.
