"Peace Riders - End of terror" - The Story

1645 in Osnabrück: After years of preparation, Osnabrück is the place for the talks to end the Thirty Years' War. The other place is Münster. Under Emperor Ferdinand III, a huge process begins. 109 delegations represent the interests of all of Europe. A highlight in the autumn of 1645 is the arrival of the first envoys in the city. The citizens stand in festive rows along the streets. You are the secretaries of the emperor's envoy Maximilian von Trauttmansdorff. Now it is up to you to make these historic peace talks a success!

While solving the puzzles, you move at walking pace in the area of the old town between the Buck Tower, the Bürgergehorsam tower, the theatre and the palace. The game ends near the Carolinum-Gymnasium. You will find clues for solving the riddles at well-known sights, information boards, etc.
