Self-guided podcast tour The Border Soul of Aachen

Description

Dive into the disrespectful, indestructible heart of Aachen. This is not a tour of emperors and cathedrals; it is a journey into the border soul of the city – a unique cultural identity, shaped by the toughness of the working class, cross-border trade, and a wonderfully cheeky sense of humor. Through the lens of the local dialect, Öcher Platt, you will discover how deformed little fingers became an emblem of honor, how Napoleon accidentally changed a gingerbread recipe, and why the locals fought tooth and nail to keep the statue of a naked toddler. Join us to discover the vibrant, breathing language of the streets. - 2.0 km self-guided tour with 6 stations over 84 min. - Ideal for everyone interested in identity, migration & globalization and society & everyday life Excitingly told in a podcast style by experts and locals - Suitable audio content, AI guide, and navigation via the app
