Old Town walks
The best way to discover the city centre of Basel is on one of the five tours of the Old Town.
Visit us at the tourist information office to pick up brochures that describe the five signposted tours of the Old Town.
Each tour shows you the city and its development from a different aspect. Be your own guide! The tours lead through the lanes of the city to the main museums and across the loveliest squares. You will get fascinating views from the hills of Basel and interesting insights into everyday life.
All five tours begin and end on the Marktplatz (corner of Sattelgasse). The idea behind the tours is really simple. World-famous citizens of Basel have influenced the names of the tours. Follow the signposts in the town which depict the head of the personality who has given their name to the respective tour. Each tour also has its own colour.
