Podcast Tour Bruges Shadows of Salvation

Step into the fog-drenched, cobblestone streets of 15th-century Bruges, a city caught in a profound and terrifying paradox. On one hand, it is the economic powerhouse of Northern Europe, overflowing with silk, spices, and unimaginable merchant wealth. On the other, it is a society paralyzed by the fear of sudden death, plague, and eternal damnation. Join Anna, a cultural historian, and Nico, an architectural detective, as they unravel the dark, superstitious heart of medieval capitalism. You will discover how the city's elite tried to literally buy their way into heaven, how political power was disguised as divine right, and how the desperate masses sought miracles in vials of blood and the shadows of towering brick spires. - A 3.3 km self-guided tour with 7 stops over 112 min - Ideal for travelers interested in Spirituality, Myth & Nature and History & Memory - Immersively told in a podcast style by experts and locals - Matching audio content, AI guide and navigation through the app
