Aachen's historic old town invites you to take a stroll!

If you want to discover the many facets of Aachen’s Old Town, this classic tour is just the thing for you! Winding alleys, charming squares, old and new fountains, and beautiful townhouses—blending historical heritage with modern lifestyle, this walking tour brings the city’s 2,000-year history to life.  

Our guides will take you to the most beautiful spots in the Old Town, including the fascinating Aachen Cathedral, the magnificent City Hall, and the whimsical Doll Fountain. But that’s not all: on this tour, you’ll also hear exciting stories about the Elisenbrunnen and the thermal water, and listen to amusing tales about the chicken thief, the Fischpüddelchen, and the Bahkauv. We’ll stroll through the pretty Körbergasse and across the lively Hof, see Aachen’s only square, and learn the traditional greeting of the Aacheners at the Klenkes Monument.
