Beneath the jagged silhouette of Fribourg’s medieval towers lies a city built on vertical ambition and dark, centuries-old secrets.

This self-guided audio tour unlocks the hidden narratives carved into the walls of the St. Nicholas Cathedral and the Loretokapelle. Bypass the superficial sights to unearth the scandals that shaped the soul of this cliffside fortress. Why did a desperate siege force the inhabitants to choose between their faith and their survival? What spirit supposedly guards the silent corridors of the Agostinian church? And why does a single, misplaced gargoyle on the cathedral still mock the town elders today? Traverse the steep alleyways and feel the weight of history under your feet.

This tour was such a great way to see the city. The stories were interesting without feeling too scripted, and I loved being able to explore at my own pace.
This was a solid way to get to know Brighton without feeling like a tourist. The narration had depth and context, but didn't overdo it.
