A Glimpse Behind Closed Doors
The tour follows the idea of wandering through the old town off the beaten path and opening doors that usually remain closed. This is where the special charm lies: The tour combines city sightseeing, local history, and authentic insights into a cultural enrichment experience with a unique atmosphere. Depending on the date, a craft business may also be visited, if available. ([kulttouren.de](https://www.kulttouren.de/fuehrungen/alle-fuehrungen/sesam-oeffne-dich))
Regensburg's Old Town as a Stage for History
Regensburg's historical backdrop provides the appropriate dramaturgy: The tour starts at the Old Town Hall, one of the central secular buildings of the city, whose history dates back to Regensburg's elevation to a Free Imperial City in 1245. The imperial hall building and the legal chamber in the cellar make the building a place where power, trade, and urban self-assertion remain palpable to this day.
