Aachen Free Tour: History, Myths & Legends of the Imperial City

Aachen’s legacy began over two millennia ago within its thermal Roman foundations—a city that would become the once-capital of an empire that forever changed the history of Europe. As a collective of proud locals and professional guides, we invite you to experience this evolution firsthand.

Together, we will traverse the ancient, winding streets of the Imperial City, uncovering the secrets hidden in plain sight. We layer our journey with a rich blend of rigorous history, lighthearted humor, and the ethereal myths and legends that have echoed through these stones for centuries.

Beyond the grand monuments, we immerse you in the authentic local culture, revealing the unique spirit of the city and pausing to savor the delicacies that define our heritage. Look for us at the meeting point—we proudly fly the umbrella colored with the black and gold of the city flag.
