A crimson spire pierces Basel’s skyline, its stones scarred by centuries of wildfire and revolution. Yet the secrets beneath those red rooftops run deeper still.

Take this self-guided audio tour through Basel’s twisting alleys and grand halls. Hear legends, scandals, and hidden histories that most visitors never even guess at.

Which forbidden love fueled riots at Basel Minster and changed city law overnight? What vanished painting at Kunstmuseum Basel once triggered an international chase worthy of a crime novel? And whose haunting nocturnes echo through the walls of the Music Academy, night after night, unsolved to this day?

Move through shadowed cloisters and vibrant plazas as intrigue and artistry unfold. Let political feuds, forgotten artists, and musical mysteries reshape the city you thought you knew.

The past waits beneath every cobblestone. Press play and uncover the Basel most will never see.
