SECOND TRIP
Our "Three C's" tour date followed by lunch
is set
for February 29th and will be
strictly limited to 25
attendees
,
no children.
The tour will last about two hours, taking us from the castle (Esslinger Burg) to Esslingen’s ossuary under the city archive, then through some excavations and other locations.
The tour will meet and begin at the "Dicker Turm", a hidden water cistern at the Esslingen Castle (Burg) followed by a short walk back into the town where we will see an underground medieval cellar. Next, we will visit the Crypt followed by the Bone House (Ossuary). The tour will end near the Marktplatz, where we will have lunch.
Part of the tour will be in underground Esslingen and each of the 4 sites can only be visited with a qualified guide and a key.
***ALERT***
This tour is not recommended if you are claustrophobic and/or cannot climb stairs.
