When Durlach becomes the stage for old legends at dusk

This costume tour takes you right into the legendary side of Durlach.

The White Lady of the Turmberg takes her guests on an atmospheric tour that combines history you can touch with a real discovery experience.

Legendary city tour with historical depth

At the center is the legendary figure of the White Lady of the Turmberg, who, as the in-house figure of lore and legends of Durlach, is closely connected to the Turmberg and local tradition. The tour relies on scenic representation and makes participants themselves actors in eerie stories. This creates a cultural enrichment that not only entertains but also makes the historical identity of the district visible.

Durlach's old town in evening light

The tour's charm unfolds especially at dusk. Narrow alleys, historical squares, and proximity to the marketplace provide a distinctive backdrop for the tour. The Durlach marketplace with its market fountain and the town hall forms a prominent meeting point where urban history, everyday life, and architecture come together. The tour takes advantage of this atmosphere and creates a memorable journey through the cultural heritage of the district.

Practical information for the tour

The tour lasts about two hours and takes place in almost any weather. Weatherproof clothing, sturdy footwear, and a flashlight are recommended, as the terrain in the cobblestone streets of Durlach can be uneven. Advance registration is mandatory. The group size is limited, which keeps the tour personal and focused while also allowing space for scenic moments. The meeting point is at the Durlach marketplace by the market fountain, under the awning of the Durlach town hall in wet weather.
