Embark on the Zürich Audio Tour: Banking Titans and Cathedral Stones

A river of secrets runs beneath Zürich’s polished glass and ancient stones, connecting boardrooms to back alleys in ways even locals seldom suspect.

Uncover the city on a self-guided audio tour that weaves through its storied landmarks—from the dignified halls of Neue Zürcher Zeitung to the global nerve centers of UBS and Credit Suisse—revealing the tales that hide in plain sight.

Which newspaper editor risked everything to smuggle forbidden headlines past censors? What shadowy network, born on a quiet Zurich street, once shaped worlds behind closed doors? And why did a single handwritten memo almost topple Switzerland’s most trusted bank?

Stride from riverside promenades to discreet city squares, following footsteps that crackle with intrigue, ambition, and debate. Prepare to see Zürich’s facade split open, revealing the drama beneath the order.

Hear the whispers below the surface. Press play and unlock Zürich’s hidden chronicles now.
