Embark on the Thun Audio Tour: Castles, Canals, and Chronicles Unveiled

A sword once clashed on cobblestones just beneath the spires of Thun Castle, echoing secrets that still cling to the city’s foggy mornings. Thun holds more than postcard beauty—layered beneath its medieval rooftops are stories of bold rebellions and mysterious betrayals.

This self-guided audio tour leads you beyond the obvious, into hidden corners and forgotten galleries. Trace river paths, pause in silent pews, and uncover the lesser-known tales that give Thun its heartbeat.

Who attempted a daring escape from Thun Castle’s looming tower? What scandal set the bells of the City Church ringing in the dark? And why was a priceless masterpiece hidden for decades inside Kunstmuseum Thun’s unassuming walls?

Move through ancient alleyways and sunlit plazas as you piece together drama, intrigue, and the unexpected. See Thun as its residents once did—in all its vibrant complexity.

Start listening now and let Thun reveal its layers.
