This hunt will start at 9:30 and should end around noon. Six puzzles are to be solved, they relate to the heritage of the city, with an additional enigma to decide who will have finished the entire course.
A treasure of 10 real silver coins is provided for the lucky winner.
This animation is possible with family, friends, or solo.
