Detailed description

Recruiters‘ Alley
The ”Zum Heiligen Geist “ Inn was first mentioned in 1476. Later in 18th century, when officers and nobles wishing to enlist soldiers for their
regiments stayed there, it became known as the Werbehaus: “werben” means to recruit, hence the name of the alley. Your route will now take you through the Werbhausgasse to the Kirchstraße and on to the Großer Markt, which you crossed at the beginning of the tour.
