Blood and thunder: Inspector "Kluftinger" crime scenes in Kempten

If you thought that the Allgäu was a tranquil place, think again! Kempten is the setting of the popular German novels and TV series "Hauptkommissar Kluftinger", in which Chief Inspector Kluftinger always had his hands full. Why not follow in his footsteps and join a guided tour? On the two-hour tour, you'll be guided through the inner town past film locations, and be read passages from the detective stories. Useful tip: If you book in advance, after the walk you'll be able to enjoy a dish of "Kässpatzen" (a traditional regional cheesy dish) – just like Chief Inspector Kluftinger used to eat. Booking yourself on to the tour is a must!
