Travel back in time with Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Frankfurt's most famous son, and master exciting challenges together with him in this self-guided exploration game. Start at the Goethe monument on Goetheplatz, a square Goethe never saw, visit his birthplace, the Paulskirche and the rebuilt Römerberg, cross the Iron Footbridge to lively Sachsenhausen, and finish at the Kleinmarkthalle, solving tricky puzzles and deciphering secret clues on the route.
Along the way you solve challenges in the Questo app, learn historical facts and local myths, and discover hidden spots that only locals know and most tourists pass by. The walk covers about 3 km and takes around 2 hours, with no time limit.
