The process is extremely straightforward and fun right from the setup:

  2. Configure the tour: The ticket holder sets the number of players, the team division, the desired tour, and the language.
  3. Create a lobby: A Lobby QR Code is displayed in the app. All other participants scan this code to join the lobby.
  4. Choose a team: Each player selects a team and joins it – perfect if you want to compete in multiple groups!
  5. Select a role: Whether photographer, detective, or adventurer – each player takes on an individual role and receives tailored challenges during the game.
  6. Start the tour: All players start together and the Scavenger Hunt through Pirna begins!

The app's GPS navigation guides you safely from station to station. At each location, a new task awaits: solving puzzles, looking for clues in the surroundings, taking photos, or mastering creative challenges. You set the pace – pause whenever you want, make a detour to a café, or enjoy the view of the Elbe. The app will reliably bring you back to the route afterward.

What to expect from a Scavenger Hunt in Pirna

Pirna is not called the “Gateway to Saxon Switzerland" for nothing. The city combines an impressive density of historical buildings, picturesque alleys, and exciting stories in a small space. And that's exactly what makes the Scavenger Hunt in Pirna so special: You don't experience all this as a passive spectator, but as an active explorer.

What sights will you encounter on the tour?

The route takes you past some of the most fascinating places in the city. Here's a small preview:

  • Marienkirche Pirna: The late Gothic hall church with its impressive net vault is the city's landmark. Look closely – some puzzles are hidden in the details!
  • Pirna Town Hall: The striking town hall at the marketplace is the centerpiece of the old town and a true gem of Renaissance architecture.
  • Schloss Sonnenstein: This imposing fortress towers high above the city. The castle's history is multi-layered – from a state fortress to a sanatorium and the dark period of the Pirna-Sonnenstein killing center, which today serves as a memorial to the victims of Nazi euthanasia.
  • Peter-Ulrich-Haus: One of the oldest preserved townhouses in Pirna with a fascinating facade that tells stories from several centuries.
  • Klosterkirche Pirna: An architectural jewel that once belonged to the Dominican monastery and now hosts cultural events.
  • Erlpeter: This striking building at the marketplace immediately catches the eye and holds some surprising anecdotes.
  • Pirna City Bridge: The historic Elbe bridge connects the old town with the opposite bank and offers a fantastic view of the city's silhouette.

In addition to the major highlights, you'll also discover the small, hidden treasures during the Scavenger Hunt in Pirna: winding courtyards, mysterious inscriptions on house facades, and places where even locals have never consciously stood still. That's exactly what makes the charm of a scavenger hunt – you suddenly see the city with completely different eyes.

Especially noteworthy

In the 18th century, Pirna was immortalized in numerous paintings by the famous painter Bernardo Bellotto, known as Canaletto. Many of his motifs remain virtually unchanged in the old town to this day – a true open-air museum! Keep your eyes open on your scavenger hunt: Maybe you'll recognize one or another motif.

What tasks await you?

The tasks in the Scavenger Hunt in Pirna are as diverse as the city itself. Expect a colorful mix of:

  • Knowledge puzzles about the history and culture of Pirna
  • Observation tasks where you have to spot details on buildings, statues, and squares
  • Creative photo challenges that create unforgettable memory pictures
  • Logic and combination puzzles that require real teamwork
  • Role-specific special tasks tailored to your chosen character

Each solved task earns points for the high score. And yes – you're not only competing against each other but also against teams from all over Germany. Who will manage to break the Pirna record?
