What to expect

Take part in a very entertaining journey through the history of the Cologne Carnival and visit during this city rally 12 stations where you solve tasks!

Carnival in Cologne has existed since time immemorial. It is a funny hustle and bustle on Fastelovend, the evening before a long Lent. Imagine the following situation in 1905: Suddenly the Prussians come to Cologne. They can't take a joke and ban the carnival. But they didn't count on the people of Cologne. From today on, they promise the Prussians, the carnival will be organized. And to be able to organize everything properly, they spread the carnival over six days and start celebrating as early as on Weiberfastnacht.

But watch out! This order is in danger. Bad excesses threaten the Cologne carnival. The alcohol level rises too much already in the morning hours... This is a danger you must ward off. There are 12 stations. Each station stands for a special custom of the Cologne Carnival. Therefore it is important that you solve all tasks. Only when you have solved the task at the last station, you have preserved all the customs for the people of Cologne and saved the carnival: Kölle Alaaf!
