Description
Discover the forgotten ritual of high society - In the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, walking was not a simple leisure activity but a cultivated ritual of the elite – an art form that expressed education, status, and social sophistication.
Experience an extraordinary tour with Marie-Christine Egger through the magnificent Baroque garden of Schloss Waldegg and the dreamy English landscape park of the Einsiedelei. Immerse yourself in a time when the gentleman of the world moved in the green according to strict social rules – controlled, thoughtful, and always under the watchful eyes of society.
As Zurich writer Salomon Gessner aptly noted: "The turn to nature brings the turn away from society." Walking was more than physical movement – it was a philosophical act. Heinrich Heine added: "Women are distinguished by beauty and charm, men by conviction."
The ladies, who at that time were denied understanding of the art of promenading, are now warmly welcome as spectators! Secure your place for this special cultural experience! Starting point is Schloss Waldegg, endpoint: Schlucht Eingang Einsiedelei
