Puzzle enthusiasts and adventure seekers can experience a mysterious world full of excitement and thrills in the escape rooms of the Salzufler Underground. In the old cellar vaults of Bad Salzuflen's train station, deeply hidden secrets await discovery. Additionally, the city center of Salzuflen can be explored by both young and old on outdoor tours, where exciting puzzles need to be solved.

In the escape rooms of the Salzufler Underground, groups of two to five or six people are faced with special challenges. Within a set time, they must solve numerous puzzles that are not only tricky but also intertwined. Behind each of the three rooms lies a fascinating story with its own thematic world.

Props, hidden messages, keys, mirrors, and images: Every item could contain an important clue for the solution. In the Salzufler Underground, not only skill but also logical thinking, problem-solving skills, and teamwork are required. And for some hidden puzzles, even physical effort counts.

Elaborate special effects and breathtaking settings make this film-like experience an immersive puzzle adventure full of surprises.

The two exciting outdoor tours of the Salzufler Underground for children and adults of 2 – 6 people lead through the city center of Salzuflen. Using GPS-guided tablets, groups walk for 2 – 3 hours through the city center, solving tricky and fun mini-games and puzzles (both analog and digital).

The Alchemist's Workshop

For many decades, the alchemist Benedictus experimented in the cellar of a former monastery. He developed formulas and incantations, summoned spirits and foreign powers. Now, as he grows older and weaker, his work is turning against him with all its might. His powers wane, and his mind grows weary. His knowledge is in danger of being lost forever! Because the three magical crystals that the alchemist needs to create his elixir of life have vanished. Benedictus urgently needs your help!

The Outdoor Tours

Your trail leads into the city center of Bad Salzuflen – past historical sites, dark corners, and seemingly harmless facades.
