crime tour

Witchcraft executions, medieval death sentences and hidden dark history — Zurich's sinister past is waiting to be explored on foot.

A guided tour through St. Pauli traces the murder sites of serial killer Fritz Honka and the violent pimp wars that defined the district in the 1980s. The neighbourhood's notorious streets reveal decades of organised crime, prostitution, and bloodshed. Few areas in Germany carry a darker criminal legacy than this stretch of Hamburg's waterfront quarter.
