Lausanne’s towers guard secrets older than the glacial lake below—stone and glass hiding centuries of conflict, innovation, and intrigue.

This self-guided audio tour leads you off the beaten path and into the city’s living heart, revealing the stories and corners most travelers overlook. Hear whispers echoing from the Notre-Dame Cathedral’s ancient bells, courtroom dramas at Switzerland’s Federal Supreme Court, and astonishing breakthroughs within the halls of Debiopharm.

What desperate act once shook the entire city from the cathedral steps? Who vanished beneath the marble columns of Swiss justice—and why? Which laboratory discovery forever altered the fate of local farmers on a foggy morning?

Trace Lausanne’s twisting streets where revolutions sparked and illusions broke apart. Feel each step reverberate underfoot as visions of scandal and determination unfold around you. Get ready to see Lausanne tilt, shimmer, and come alive.

Begin the journey—Lausanne’s secrets are waiting.
