Description

We start at Paradeplatz, Zurich's financial heart, with relevant Swiss women, historical and contemporary. We visit Fraumünster, with abbesses whose power lasted almost seven centuries, and Fraumünster Society, which keeps their legacy alive. From Münsterbrücke we talk about the Frauenbad, Regula, patron saint of Zurich and the witch hunts. In Niederdorf we will meet Emmy Ball-Hennings and Sophie Taeuber-Arp, pioneers of Dadaism at the Cabaret Voltaire.

From Rathausbrücke we explore the role of women in Swiss politics. We visit Barbara Schaufelberger's printing house and pass a legalized brothel to reflect on sex work. We meet Hedwig ab Burghalden, who prevented the siege of Zurich. In Lindenhof, in front of Zurich's main university campuses. We remember Marie Heim-Vögtlin, the first Swiss physician, and Mileva Maric, a physicist and mathematician who played a key role in Einstein's work.

We will walk along Augustinergasse, the most beautiful street in Zurich and in front of the residence of Johanna Spyri, author of Heidi. We end at the HB Zurich, where Helvetia symbolizes Swiss unity. We will close under the protective angel of Niki de Saint-Phalle, who gives strength and color to our farewell.

Descubriendo Zúrich desde un punto distinto

Hicimos un free tour en Zúrich con un enfoque en las mujeres más importantes de la historia de la ciudad, y fue una experiencia fantástica. El contenido del tour es muy interesante y diferente a los recorridos más tradicionales, ya que pone en valor figuras femeninas clave que normalmente no aparecen en las visitas guiadas. Además, tuvimos la suerte de estar solo la guía y yo, lo que hizo la experiencia aún mejor: fue mucho más cercana, personalizada y permitió profundizar en los temas con calma, resolver dudas y charlar de forma muy agradable. La guía explicó todo con mucha pasión y conocimiento, creando un ambiente muy cómodo y enriquecedor. Sin duda, recomiendo este tour a cualquiera que quiera conocer Zúrich desde una perspectiva distinta y con mucho contenido histórico y social.
